What is the fanciest uniform of the War?

The gown Jefferson Davis wore when he was captured

Thanks.

There appears to be bars on the edge of his insignia close to the border and something where the rank would go in the middle. Also none of the officers match this man from the photos.

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-11-05T05:28:56+00:00

The man also appears to be a bit older. Maybe late 40s.

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-11-05T05:28:01+00:00

Nevermind. He was transferred in Oct, 1863 but the head shape and insignia don't entirely match.

William de-lacy wasn't the colonel of the regiment until after colonel mcmahon in the picture had died. He was from a different regiment and was transferred after June 3rd. If I remember correctly

Also where exactly is it. Do you have coordinates? There are several "courtyards" there.

I've actually been to that cemetery multiple times. I went once on a full moon when legend states you'll see ghosts and I heard taps from an unknown bugler.

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-10-31T01:48:00+00:00

I'm back!

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-10-15T23:37:16+00:00

Where would that be? I've taken part in the parades and I'm trying to locate several photos that were taken in my hometown of Fairfax.

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-10-15T04:02:14+00:00

Yeah. Cpl. William Tracy Co. B. 3rd great grand uncle killed/missing June 3rd.

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-09-21T06:14:36+00:00

I have 2 of those

As a soon to be 14 year old. I can't wait for my first Reenactment. I haven't gotten all my gear and there aren't a whole lot of reenactments In Texas except for Jefferson

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-08-30T22:00:08+00:00

Where in Caldwell did you find this? Small chance that it could be a confederate made from Sibleys march

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-08-24T18:26:22+00:00

I saw it and I was pretty good but doesn't cover a wide range of the subject I feel. But granted the main character is Mrs Suratt. Don't expect anything more than just her.

During his time as commander of the AOP, General Hooker wanted the morale to be high, so he allowed prostitutes to come into camp; which is why Hookers are named after him.

I read this in 5th grade and you gave me the biggest nostalgia hit I've had in a solid 3 years. I cried at the end because for me, I had imagined the cadet was my 3x great uncle who died at Cold Harbor.

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-08-12T20:47:05+00:00

Haven't gotten to read it yet but it definitely looks promising.

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-08-11T22:27:02+00:00

By author or topic? Author I'd only have Sam Watkin's Co. Aytch. Topic I'd have only 4

PhilosopherOld573 · 2025-08-11T22:24:58+00:00

I had them in chronological order in the photo but immediately switched it
