The Independent Battalion of New York Volunteer Infantry, also known as German Legion or New York Corps of Light Infantry, was an infantry battalion from New York City that served in the Union Army during the American Civil War. It was formed in April 1862; originally as Enfants Perdu Regiment but was immediately downgraded to a battalion as it couldn't muster enough companies. The unit served in the Carolinas for the duration of its existence. It was disbanded in January 1864; the men being transferred to the 47th and 48th infantry regiments and to the 1st Engineer Regiment.
