Re: Red Blankets in the Federal Army???

I know for sure the 7th New York state militia (a crack parade unit I must say) were issued red blankets in 1861 and a few other units from New England states but I can't say for sure which other
units received them.

GWHall,

The link does not allow me to view it any longer. Do you happen to know the name of the Iowa regiment that carried it? I have been searching for something like this for some time, and I would really appreciate the info. Thank you for posting the link!
