ACW Veteran Reserve Corps
« on: November 17, 2012, 04:19:32 »
I don't know what to do with these new caps and decided to fit them onto my Veteran Reserve Corps since their strange blue colours match these new caps...anybody know what the patterns on these new caps signify?

very nice looking civil war troops Cheng, you certainly have found a good use and match for those hats

thanks PFs!
Yes, Tahra, I think its that light blue found on old US cavalry legs...but cant remember where those old matching torsos came from :P
and Gordon, I'll find and post another clearer pic of the cap....still very curious what the insignia represents (I'm sure Geobra did their homework)
