Is it known if there were any Confederate veterans that participated in the 1871 US Expedition to Korea?
I'm aware of various Confederate veterans who ended up rejoining US military service after the war, including General Joseph Wheeler who went on to serve in the Spanish-American War and famously called out, "Let's go, boys! We've got the **** Yankees on the run again!" to his troops in confusion during the Battle of La Guasimas. However, I've been unable to find any information regarding or evidence of Confederate veterans serving in the Korean Expedition of 1871.
I would be very interested to learn if there were any, given what an interesting and forgotten conflict the expedition was.
