Bold cannonade drives Minon from Buena Vista pass I
Amid Buena Vista fighting, Lieutenants Shover and Donaldson lead a bold raid with a 24 and 6 pounder, driving General Minon’s rear and clearing the pass. Wheeler’s company supports as Minon retreats toward the plain, the field opening to Union lines at dusk. The 35 mile night march and river crossings showcase the unit’s grit and sacrifice.
