Gents,
Why did Confederate troops wear Federal hat cords on their civilian hats? Was it for decoration purposes? I was just curious. I used the search function with no help and was hoping someone could answer my question. This is something I've seen reenactors wearing, but haven't found a reason why. This isn't a "reenactor-ism" is it? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
