Heinrich (Henry) Mueting enlisted with the 1st Nebraska Infantry in Omaha, Nebraska on 11 June 1861. The unit shipped out under the command of Lt. Colonel William McCord, initially to patrol Missouri and Arkansas. It was soon ordered to join with General Ulysses S. Grant in Tennessee and participated in the successful capture of the Confederate Fort Donelson. From Fort Donelson, the troops under Grant headed south and soon became engaged in the Battle of Shiloh on April 6 and 7, 1862. Sadly, Private Mueting fell ill with "inflammation of the lungs" according to his military records. Private Mueting would pass away aboard the hospital ship Horizon on 26 March 1862 at Crump's Landing in Hardin County, Tennessee just north of the Shiloh Battlefield.
