we were to go to an l.c., but before we got there, there were -- we were going to split. we were marching out with companies from two battalions. from the first to the fifth, and the second to the fifth, and the order i had received from captain fessmyer, he passed away a few years ago, the order was we were marching out, and our company was going to be the rear most company in the battalion, and i was going to be their rear most platoon. nobody behind me. we were not going to have any artillery after we split out. second to the fifth, one of the battalions, they would move out to columbus and we would keep on going to another l.c. i don't remember if we had the name given at the time. it turn out to be albany. albany. but at the time i don't remember that they gave it a name. >> mm-hmm. >> they had different letters for some of them. and i don't remember which one. but i remember distinctly, l.c. albany, i only learned that later as far as i'm concerned. from that point on we would have no artillery support. and i was scared for that. we need some artillery. >> sure. >>
