August 15, 1864, he was made a captain in the Twenty-eighth, and the following December major. March 13, 1865, when but twenty-one years of age he was brevet lieutenant colonel, for gallant and meritorious service during the war. He was mustered out June 5, 1866, and honorably discharged.

Shubal F. White, of Convis, was made first lieutenant of Company A at its organization August 16, 1864, and captain December 10 of same year and served till the regiment was mustered out in 1866.
