Bill,
Thanks for the info. I wonder, as your one posting references 1st Michigan at First Bull Run (the 3 mos. regiment), what you might have on the 1st Michigan (3 years) uniform when they were reorganized?

In looking at a number of 16th Michigan/Stockton's Regt photos I note what seems like the commonality of short jackets in the enlisted men. Any idea if short jackets were the initial issue for Stockton's?

Thanks again

Stuart
