114th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment "Collis' Zouaves"

The 114th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment lost 7 officers and 66 enlisted men killed and mortally wounded and 1 officer and 37 enlisted men to disease during the Civil War. It is honored by a monument at Gettysburg.

Several photographs were taken of the 114th Pennsylvania during 1864, probably due to both their colorful unforms and the fact that they were at Army Headquarters for a period of time as part of the Provost Guard. All photos below can be enlarged.
