Thanks for the clarification...I'm not familiar with much about Arkansas...extent of my knowledge knowing of the 3rd Arkansas of the ANV.

Mr. Boulden

I am sending you a website that has the information about the 3rd Arkansas Inf. Regt. ANV:

I am very proud to have had a grt grt grandfather in this unit Co. C. which survived the war.
Please forgive me for throwing this in the thread about the Mexican War Knapsack, however, I thought that Mr. Boulden might find this interesting.

When I am portraying Western CS, I use my Mexican War knapsack. As everyone else has said, I would go for that.

Re: Western Confederate knapsack

I have been trying to find information for years on the types knapsack that the Confederate used at Fort Donelson. For a Fort Donelson impression, I was thinking that perhaps a single bag knapsack would be the way to go. What do you guys think? Thanks.
