Hello all,
Long time viewer of this forum but firt time poster. I have seen the other posts on this forum regarding federal paymasters. I know the paymaster usually held the rank of Major. I however have seen shoulder boards of other ranks, distinguished as part of the pay department. Is this a reenactorism or were there other ranks within the pay department, and what would their function be? Would the assist the paymaster? Would they perform similar tasks as the paymaster himself?
Thanks so much for the help, and very sorry if this question has been answered I have searched this forum as well as googled information and have come up pretty much empty handed.
Regards
Terence Vierling
