Hi,
just wanted to provide some positive feedback on someone who is not spoken of so often on the forum. I received a used '2nd Maryland type' Tait jacket (Blue faced collar, no epaulettes) from the forum that had originally been made by Jim Warehime (makes uniform items for S & S Sutler's of Gettysburg). It's a very nice jacket that compares well in cloth, pattern and construction with two Tait jackets I have that were made by County Cloth. I met Mr Warehime by chance at Gettysburg in September last year and he said that he had viewed the original jacket (held by the Maryland Historical Society) and made a copy for Les Jensen. He also happened to be very friendly and happy to answer my questions!
