Remarks

2nd Lieutenant Fritz was a formidable Officer and had a key role in the administration of the company. He performed very well and it is a sad loss for our company after three years.

Army of the United States

Attention to Orders

This is to certify that

Adolph Fritz 2nd Lt
Company A 1st Btl 52ndNY Volunteer Infantry
Army of the United States

is hereby Honorably Discharged from the military service
of the United States of America.

This certificate is awarded as a testimonial of Honest
and Faithful Service to this country.

Do to a severe head wound, received while gallantly leading
a charge, 2nd Lt Fritz was found unconscious on the
hallowed ground after the engagement was concluded.
It was discovered that he had been accidentally hit by a
Rifle Butt of an unknown German Ranger.
The Medical Staff did their outmost, but sadly 2nd Lt Fritz is
no longer fit for duty. Currently he is on his way to the madhouse for medical treatment of the mental insane, while he
repeatedly mumbles of „Mecklenburg“.
Apparently „Mecklenburg“ is an area in Germany
where his family originally comes from.

Given at: Sharpsburg

Date: September 24th, 1862

Signed: Captain Paul Frank, 1st Btl 52ndNY Vol Inf, commanding
