  • Can't find Confederate image.

    I have been searching the forums for a few days trying to find an image posted several months ago here. It was an image of, if i remember correctly, some Confederate cavalrymen on foot standing in one rank. Most of them were dressed in civilian attire and about the only thing denoting them as cavalry was several of them were wearing boots.

    Thanks

    It's not the one of the Confederate cavalrymen captured at Brandy Station is it?

      Thanks Andrew,
      No, it was the Confederate Cavalrymen captured at Aldie, Va. in June 1863. I found it on Ken's Confederate Saddles site. This is a great site that I never really checked out much since I'm an infantryman. Great clothing images, period photography, and research there.
