We're re-thinking the uniform the battalion of Regular infantry wore at First Bull Run and a few weeks ago I was surfing the message boards here and on Bob Szabo's Forum and on one of them (I think) I ran across a photo of a miniature of a Regular in early war field dress - Hat, frock w/no scales, etc. - which illustrates the direction our admittedly "holey" research is leading us. (Meaning, we haven't found an image or an order from Sykes specifying the uniform)
My problem is that despite a lengthy search here and on the other forum, I can't find that image any more.
If someone could point the way I'd be grateful.
