I'm always way behind so it's probably been posted a half a dozen times already but i couldn't find it on a search on here.
Those trousers are particularly interesting.

The image is labeled as an unidentified UNION soldier... is it really? I'm not getting that vibe..

Nice checkered civvy pants!
Also, maybe I'm viewing this wrong, but it almost looks like his cap is on backwards.

Note the printed handkerchief threaded through the epaulet of his jacket.

Me either. The jacket ATB a RD II or variation thereof. I don't think this is a Fed, unless he is off duty!
