Private, Company E, 32nd Regiment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry
"Mr. Post enlisted August 10, 1861, for three years, becoming a private of Company E, Thirty-second Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and he participated in the engagements at McDowell, Cross Keys, Franklin and Harper's Ferry, all in Virginia. At the last named place he was taken prisoner with his regiment, and after being paroled was sent into camp Chicago, IL. In February, 1862, they were exchanged and once more went to the front, taking part in the battles of Vicksburg, Raymond, Champion Hill, Jackson and Baker's Creek. He was with Sherman on the Atlanta campaign. During that time Mr. Post's time expired and he was honorably discharged.
He returned to farming. As a citizen he has always been true and faithful to every trust reposed in him, so that his loyalty is above question, being manifest in days of peace as well as when he followed the old flag to victory on southern battlefields."
