Ebenezer enlisted 23 May 1861 as a Private in Co. G, 1st Massachusetts Infantry. That unit, among several others, left directly for Washington, DC., apparently with very little training. Its first action was at Blackburn's Ford, outside of Manassas, Virginia. That skirmish on 18 July 1861 was the preliminary engagement of the greater Battle of Bull Run, which took place three days later on 21 July. The Union Army lost 19 good men on 18 July, among them young Ebenezer Field (AMERICAN CIVIL WAR SOLDIERS. Ancestry.com).
