Who is Harry Colebourn?
In August, 1914, Lieutenant Harry Colebourn, a Veterinary Officer with the 34th Fort Garry Horse of Manitoba, was travelling by train from his home in Winnipeg to enroll in the Canadian Army Veterinary Corps in Valcartier, Quebec. Travelling by Canadian Pacific Railway, his train made a stop at White River in Ontario, where he noticed a man further along the station platform with an American black bear cub tied to the arm of the bench on which he was seated. He struck up a conversation and, learning that the man was a trapper who had shot and killed the cub's mother, Colebourn offered him $20 for the young bear -- the trapper eagerly accepted the offer and the cub was taken to Quebec, where she became the mascot of the 2nd Canadian Infantry Brigade, as Harry had been assigned to the Headquarters of that formation. One of the units in the 2nd Brigade was the 6th (Fort Garry) Battalion, which had been formed from Harry's old unit, the 34th Fort Garry Horse. --this should explain everything, but if you need more info see the question,'When was Pooh invented?' or visit http://www.poohcorner.com/A-Short-History-of-Pooh-and-Winnie.html

How did Indiana's Iron Brigade get its name?
"The Iron Brigade" was composed of the 2nd Wisconsin, 6th Wisconsin, 7th Wisconsin, 19th Indiana, and later the 24th Michigan. It was originally the Fourth Brigade, First Division, First Corp, Army of the Potomac, and served originally under Brigadier General John Gibbon. It later become the First Brigade, First Division, First Corp, Army of the Potomac, under the command of Solomon Meredith. It was originally called the "Black Hat Brigade" for its distinctive "Hardee" hats, provided at the personal expense of General Gibbon. At the battle of South Mountain, as it charged Colonel Alfred H. Colquitt's Georgia and Alabama brigade, commanding general George Brinton McClellan was told that the "Black Hat Brigade" was advancing. Listening to the roar of the musketry, and realizing that the Black Hats must have been advancing into a hailstorm of bullets, General McClellan is said to have remarked, "My God! Those men must be made of iron!" The story spread, and the brigade's name changed from the Black Hats to Iron.
