- Q5883244 abstract "Holman Staples Melcher (MEL-cher; born June 30, 1841 – June 25, 1905) was an American Union Army officer, politician, and businessman. He served two one-year terms as the Mayor of Portland, Maine from 1889 to 1890. He served as a highly respected Union officer, reaching the ranks of Lieutenant, Captain, Major, and eventually was appointed as Brevet Major. He mostly known for his part in the bayonet charge at Little Round Top that helped repulse the Confederate attack, as he was the first one to physically engage.He first began his formal military career in the 20th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment, which was mustered in and equipped at Camp Mason near Portland, Maine, in August 1862. He and his regiment were assigned to the 5th Corps (1st Division, 3rd Brigade) of the Army of the Potomac, and first engaged in military combat at the Battle of Shepherdstown Ford. During the Battle of Antietam, the 20th Maine was held in reserve on a hill near the Pry Farm.Melcher became the Union Army Lieutenant of the 20th Maine Infantry, which charged down Little Round Top at the Battle of Gettysburg. This marked the second unsuccessful assault by Confederate troops against the Union's left flank on July 2, 1863, the second day of the Battle of Gettysburg. Most of Melcher's recollections of the battles have been carefully persevered by his younger brother, Nathaniel, and remain among the most prominent primary sources of this charge of Little Round Top. During the Battle of the Wilderness, Lt. Melcher lead a small company of seventeen men through a forest along the Orange Turnpike needed for strategic alignment with the adjoining company. After being complexity surrounded, he ordered his men to lay on the ground and start shooting, they captured thirty confederates and sustained minor injuries.His involvement in the Battle of Spotsylvania Court House in Virginia, resulted in him being promoted and serious injury. While engaging in the battle, he was promoted three different times, starting with First Lieutenant, at the beginning of strategic talks, Captain in 1864, while actively fighting, and near the conclusion of the battle, Brevet Major. He also went on to serve in three different companies during that battle, resulting in him being mustered out on July 16, 1865.".
