While his brother recuperated from his battle wounds, George Haight continued to fight on with the 72nd New York, engaging the enemy in the &lt;a href="Battle%20of%20Seven%20Pines"&gt;Battle of Seven Pines/Fair Oaks&lt;/a&gt; (May 31–June 1). Reunited that summer, the brothers then fought with their respective companies in the Seven Days Battles, including at Oak Grove (June 25), the Peach Orchard and Savage's Station (June 29), White Oak Swamp, Glendale (June 30), and Malvern Hill (July 1), where George Haight was killed by enemy fire. Just over three weeks later, on July 23, 1862, John Haight was promoted to the rank of sergeant.
