Description
On Monday, November 23, 1863, thousands of Union troops flooded from Chattanooga's eastern fortifications and arrayed themselves in front of Orchard Knob. Their goal was a reconnaissance in force. Surging forward, they engulfed the knob and a little over 600 Confederates of the 24th and 28th Alabama Infantry Regiments. The fighting ended in minutes.
