Re: Wide Awakes

What I'm finding interesting about the various images is the variety in the caps. There are different style caps even in a single image. I would suppose that is due to the quick rise of the various chapters and lack of a single source of uniform items.

This can be seen in the link posted by Mr. McDonald, as well as this image:

Re: Wide Awakes

Whoa. I hadn't really noticed the length of the capes before. Longer than I expected.

Thanks for sharing!
