I'm searching for primary and secondary sources which might highlight the
service careet of Oscar James Dunn. He states in several interviews that
is helps to muster the 1st or the 2nd Reg. of New Orleans, and rises from
the rank of private to captain before being mustered out by Gen. Banks. I
have been unsuccesful in recovering government documents in regard to his
military service and would appreciate any assistance which could be
rendered . Dunn would later become Louisiana's first black Lt. Governor .
