The regiment lost 334 officers and men killed, 201 dead from disease, and 791 wounded during the Civil War. Orr?s Rifles was the first South Carolina regiment to change its enlistment from 12 months to ?for the war.? In the rainy gloom of May 12, 1864, Brigadier General Samuel McGowan?s brigade of South Carolinians battled their way into the disputed earthworks here, near the apex of the Muleshoe Salient. For eighteen hours the 1,300 South Carolinians defended these works against relentless attacks by thousands of Federals, sometimes engaging in hand-to-hand fighting. By battle?s end, 451 men of the brigade were killed, wounded, or missing. The slight angle in the works they defended would forever be known as the Bloody Angle.
