A bill to authorize the establishment at Antietam National Battlefield of a memorial to the officers and enlisted men of the Fifth, Sixth, and Ninth New Hampshire Volunteer Infantry Regiments and the First New Hampshire Light Artillery Battery who fought in the Battle of Antietam on September 17, 1862, and for other purposes.

This bill would authorize the Secretary of the Interior to establish a memorial at Antietam National Battlefield in Maryland to honor soldiers from New Hampshire who fought in the Civil War. Specifically, the monument would commemorate the officers and enlisted men of the Fifth, Sixth, and Ninth New Hampshire Volunteer Infantry Regiments and the First New Hampshire Light Artillery Battery for their service during the Battle of Antietam on September 17, 1862. If passed, the memorial would be placed at a location within the park boundaries approved by the Secretary, providing a permanent site for visitors and descendants to recognize the contributions of these specific New Hampshire units.
