Hi folks,
Adrien from France.
I've a question about my next camp in Normandy on 15th june; we are about to reenact a kansas impression during Price's expedition or raid (1864) in both colors...a very interesting war's part historically. If we consider uniforms, we all know the extreme variety of them. Because of the western front and because of the expedition getting worse for both armies.
In an article from the european-english revue Civil War campaigner by Kevin Herschberger, it deals with the fact that the wheel cap s were very popular and common form. And you will see these hats topping confederates all the war long.
Nevertheless, you find them wearing by men from north also in working class....
So i just want to know if it's authentic or possible wearing a wheel hat as an union soldier? Won't you be surprised or scandalized seeing that for an union soldier in Kansas-Missouri frontier?
Thanx a lot
Greetings from Paris
Best regards
Adrien
