Maj Maurice Maloney A Gallant Old Army Officer
Maj Maurice Maloney of the First Infantry was praised as a typical soldier by Generals Grant and Sheridan. Brevetted three times for gallantry and once for meritorious service, he earned honors from Molino del Rey to Chapultepec and Vicksburg. Known for old school discipline, he opposed Upton’s reforms yet remained a plainspoken, gallant figure. He died in 1873, leaving a legacy as one of the era’s bold officers. H.R. Brinerhofs Biout.
