Excerpt from The War of the Rebellion, Vol. 44: A Compilation of the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies; Reports, Correspondence, Etc

From the time we left Atlanta, November 16, till December 12 my command received from the Government but four days' rations of bread and meal and about half rations of sugar and coffee. The rest of the food which the men had was picked up by foraging parties along the line of march sent out from the regiment. All the forage for the animals from the time we left Atlanta till the fall of Savannah was gathered in the country.
