Am seeking info on a Benjamin Desroches who served in the US Army, 1865-68 in Oregon. Died in Montana in 1930s. AKA Joseph Brien. Enlistment records state birthplace as Canada. He was a Sgt. in 23rd Inf. It's a longshot, but any info appreciated. Local history, not a relative.
This soldier was courtmartialed for an act of kindness while guarding other prisoners.
