From Pages 34 to 36 of the "History of the 127th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers."
This company, designated on the military records of the late Civil War as Company B, 127th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, was known at home as the "Harrisburg Fire Zouave."
On the 5th of August 1862, J. Wesley Awl, a prominent attorney of the city of Harrisburg, oepend a recruiting station at his office on the west side of North Third Street in Harrisburg, and the rolls began to fill up immediately. By Wednesday, August 6th, forty-two (42) men had signed the roll, on Thursday, eighty-two (82) men had enlisted, and on Friday, August 8th, seventy-six (76) men were mustered into the United States service in South Market Square. On that evening, (in the rear part of Brandt's Hall), an election of officers was held, which resulted in the election of J. Wesley Awl as Captain, A.J. Fager as First Lieutenant, and William McCarroll as Second Lieutenant.
On Saturday, August 9th, seventy-six (76) men were marched out to Camp Curtin, and there pitched their tents. On the afternoon of the 9th, fifteen (15) more men were added and sworn into the service of the United States. On Friday, August 15th, the new men were given their uniforms; and on the 16th received their guns and accoutrements, and were afterwards designated Company B of the 127th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, having been mustered into the United States service for nine-months.
Company B was composed of a stalwart lot of men, most of them from the city of Harrisburg, and other from the country surrounding Harrisburg. They were more like a picked body of patriotic men, than a lot of men taken haphazard; and during their term of service performed their duties willingly and strictly, giving the officers very little trouble as regards their discipline; while each and all took an interest and pride in the service, and an especial pride in the company organization.
Captain J. Wesley Awl has seen service as a Second Lieutenant of Company E, First Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, in the three months service in 1861, and was a well drilled and very efficient officer.
First Lieutenant A.J. Fager, although not in active service previous to this enlistment, had been a member of a military company since he was thirteen years old, and had drilled Company G of the Bucktails, while they lay in Camp Curtin in 1861, and received their thanks by the unanimous vote of the company.
Second Lieutenant William McCarroll was an ex-regular U.S. Soldier, understood the duties of a soldier, and had been in active service in the West amongst the Indians, was liked by the men of Company B, and commanded the respect of his fellow-officers in the company and regiment.
Company B did its whole duty during its term of service; and was justly considered a model company by its officers, and stood second to none in the estimation of the regimental officers. It was selected upon several occasions, with its officers, to perform arduous and adventurous duty, and Company B always did it well.
It was noted for its proficiency in guarding Chain Bridge; and in handling the heavy artillery in Fort Ethan Allen. The company performed its full share of picket and fatigue duty, and never shirked, or even complained of any duty, either in the camp, on the charge, or steady firing line. Discipline for shirking duty, or insubordination was almost unheard of in Company B, and it was the rarest thing to find a member of Company B in the guard-house. While the officers were strict disciplinarians, the ranks and file were gentlemen, requiring no coercion.
There were many conspicuous acts of bravery performed by this company, and by individual members of the company. Among other Privates John Y. Bell, during the battle of Fredericksburg, while standing in a furrow that had been washed out by the rain, saw a wounded comrade of the First Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment, who was so badly disabled that he was unable to use his musket any longer; and as Private Bell had exhausted his cartridges, he begged the cartridges from his wounded comrade, which were generously give up, and Private Bell used every one of them in firing at the enemy.
