The first regiment of volunteers began service in late November 1861. During their service, they fought in every Eastern battle up until autumn of 1864. During their tour, the Sharpshooters were noted for efficient service in the battles of Yorktown, Gettysburg, Vicksburg, Chattanooga, Atlanta, Spotsylvania and Petersburg.

  • O 1st United States Sharpshooters foi um regimento de infantaria, que serviu no Exército da União durante a Guerra Civil Americana, criado e comandado por Hiram Berdan. Durante a batalha, a missão do "Sharpshooter" (atirador de elite) era matar alvos inimigos importantes (ou seja, oficiais e suboficiais) a longa distância. O primeiro regimento de voluntários iniciou o serviço no final de novembro de 1861. Eles participaram de todas as batalhas no Teatro Oriental da Guerra Civil Americana, até 31 de dezembro de 1864, quando o 1º e o 2º regimentos de Sharpshooters foram consolidados. (pt)

  • Le 1er régiment de tireurs d'élite des États-Unis, ou 1st U.S. Volunteer Sharpshooters Regiment, était un régiment d'infanterie qui servit dans l'armée régulière fédérale de l'armée de l'Union durant la Guerre civile américaine.
