During their first "90 days" term, the regiment was deployed to reinforce Fortress Monroe on the Virginia Peninsula and earned the distinction of being the first volunteer Union Army regiment to set foot on seceded territory. After serving months of garrison duty, five of the regiment's nine companies took part in the Battle of Big Bethel on June 10, 1861. After serving additional garrison duty in Hampton, Virginia, the regiment returned to Boston and was mustered out on June 22, 1861. The regiment was again activated in September 1862 for a term of nine months. The 4th Massachusetts served in Louisiana during the Siege of Port Hudson.
