        The roll on top of the knapsack seems to be for decoration only. These appear to be knapsacks used just for parade although the pack could be packed. If memory serves, the roll is not an easy thing to get into. It would only hold personal items if used. Will have to look at my pictures and drawings for more info. Been a few years since we packed a bunch up. Hope this helps.

We also went to Port Hudson and found the grave stones of the unknown Confederate dead from the battle. The 49th Tennessee had several men who dead there and are maybe buried there. You have relatives that were in the 49thTenn too ?
          Jerry, you're a brave man to admit that you were seen in public with Colbi. I'm devastated that you let him bluff you into believing that he was a native. Why do you think we sent him to you? We were trying to clean up the state! I'm just disappointed that y'all sent him back! LOL

          However, the invitation stands for either of you if you make it back down. Look me up and we'll make the trip worthwhile. Just bring an appetite.

            Mr. Koehn,

            Is John still working at Confederate Memorial Hall? Isn't Rodney Painting one of your guys in Boone's too?
