If that is your question, then the answer is: 2nd Massachusetts Regiment. On May 11, Robert Shaw received word that he would be assigned to the 2nd Massachusetts Regiment. He was with this regiment during the battle of Antietam. His company was only lightly hit, and he was knicked on the neck by a spent bullet. He reported 1 killed and 5 wounded from his company. The opening scenes of the movie depicts Robert Shaw leading an infantry charge against a wall defended by Confederates, where he was wounded. This represents the battle of Antietam. About February 5th, Shaw accepted the command of the 54th Massachusetts Regiment(Colored) and was promoted to Colonel. Custermen Source: "Glory, One Gallant Rush", by Peter Burchard
