On the morning of the 25th, after marching to Tunnel Hill to support Gen. Sherman, the Division returned and formed the left of the line for assaulting Missionary Ridge. The 14th held the extreme left of the assault, with the 38th Ohio in front of it in the first line.
The regiment reached the crest at this point, and became successfully engaged with forces which had been driven to the left. On the 26th it marched with its Brigade in pursuit toward Ringgold, and on the 28th helped destroy the railroad for some distance beyond that point. Casualties: Killed, 3 Men; Wounded, 17 Men; Total, 20.
