Charles Carroll and the "Dandy Fifth" Regiment of Maryland Infantry

Harper just confirmed for me that his grandfather, Charles Carroll, was in the 5th Maryland Regiment during the Spanish American War. The regiment was assembled first at the Pimlico Race-track with the soldiers "messing" under the stands, and spent most of the very brief war at camp in Chickamauga, Ga. near the old battlefield before being sent to Tampa on June 5th. They were in Tampa when the armistice was signed and then sent to Huntsville, Alabama before being mustered out in Baltimore on October 22, 1898, six months after they formed. I have found an old newsreel of the "Dandy Fifth" (so-called because of its many wealthy members) of the regiment marching at a parade to honor Admiral Dewey in 1900. I don't know if your ancestor is among them, but it is worth a look.
