First Regiment Rhode Island U.S. Volunteers[edit]

I have moved this to a seperate article as they are not the same unit only share a simular name.Marc29th (talk) 21:23, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I was going to do that too, but I thought maybe the units shared a lineage or something that I didn't know about. —Kevin Myers 22:12, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In that vein, I removed "Rhode Island in the War with Spain, since it went with the other article. LTC David J. Cormier (talk) 19:46, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
