Information requested on rations for the ANV

[The Chesterfield Rifleman]

I am looking for information regarding the rations that were issued to the ANV, particularly in the mid-war era.

Re: Information requested on rations for the ANV

Which year? Which season? Which campaign? Which part of the campaign? Which period between campaigns? Which division? Time, place and unit really matter. The question is way too broad to be answered.

Here's a suggestion. Follow this link and read every post of every page in this thread : http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/...?13288-Rations It's only 102 pages. There's a ton of useful informaton about rations in this thread.

It's a sad thing there's never been any books written on Lee's Gettysburg Campaign. Tongue planted firmly in cheek.

I did a Google search and yielded over 5 million hits.

I think you'll just have to do some of your own work. Isn't that half the fun in discovering things you don't know?
