Major Cabot Forbes was born in 1837 and the childhood friend of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw. When Robert returned from the Battle of Antietam, he accepted an opportunity to be colonel of the all-black 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment and wanted Cabot to be major. Cabot begins to be soft on the men, so Robert hires Sergeant Major Mulcahy to train them. He notices that Robert is hard on the men and confronts him about how he has turned into a different person. In the end, he dies alongside the 54th regiment.
