11th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment

The regiment received the nickname "The Bloody Eleventh" at the Battle of Hoke's Run, Virginia, July 2, 1861.

When the original three-year enlistment period expired in January 1864, many of the men re-enrolled in the regiment at the influence of Brig.

The regiment's beloved mascot, Sallie Ann Jarrett, "a brindle, bull-terrier"[5]> similar to today's American Staffordshire Terrier, traveled everywhere with the unit.

[6] Her loyalty was undying, for at Gettysburg, after the battle on the First Day was over, Sallie, tired and hungry, ambled out to where her brave comrades had fought and died.

Her friends nursed her back to health, and she fought with the unit in every battle until she was mortally wounded at Hatcher's Run in February 1865.

Never forgetting the most devoted member of their regiment, in 1890 the veterans of the 11th forever memorialized her by placing her bronze likeness on their monument on Oak Ridge in the Gettysburg National Military Park.

A family oriented authentic progressive unit and part of 4th Regiment, Federal Volunteer Brigade.
