Joel Augustus Stratton (1837–1920) was a Union Army Captain who served as commander of Company C, 53rd Massachusetts Volunteers during the American Civil War. He fought in the Battles of Fort Bisland and Port Hudson. While leading a reconnaissance team of 10 men at Port Hudson, a minie ball from a Confederate sniper hit his left eye and exited out the back of his ear. Miraculously, he survived the battle and retired when the 53rd was mustered out of service on September 2, 1863.
