Re: Brass Star & Crescent
KGC. I'll be danged. May be.
I ain't saying it ain't so, but it most certainly is the badge / symbol representing the US Army, VII Corps, Department of Arkansas.
How/When/Why modern day reenactors wear it is a mystery. I'm pretty sure most wear it cause the figure the boys wore it. I'm just as sure, hardly any of 'em know why.
Has anybody ever seen a real one? I don't mean a $10 replica. I'm talking about an honest to goodness piece of American history. An antique. What do you reckon a real one would cost in this modern day era of made in china junk?
