[Unidentified soldier in Union uniform with musket and bayonet] (LOC)

  This fellow's buckle is upside down -- this must have been taken early in basic training. :)

• jmc33vavols said:

  No. Again, I believe this is a Confederate. If CSA or state buckles were scarce they would reverse acquired Union ones, a common practice.

• jmc33vavols said:

  Addendum: The high collar was much more common in Southern enlisted men's uniforms. Also, the rather ancient looking smoothbore musket. Even early on, Union soldiers had better rifles, by and large, though recently cartridge boxes found at Antietam (Sharpsburg) showed some Union Infantry units were still carrying smoothbores in late 1862

• aware health said:

  That sounds reasonable. I also note now that the "U" was painted in upside down, so whatever the reason it wasn't accidental.

• hulagun66 said:

  Upside down US buckle is a clue this fellow may have been a regular US infantryman until his state seceded. Or it is a captured or liberated belt. The jaunty brim angle of his kepi say "Johnny Reb" to me. Men fighting on the southern side were predominantly volunteers and tended to express such positive fighting spirit throughout the war.
