M1854 Shelljacket for Enlisted |
|
|||||||||||
Musician's jackets now used a design of lace across the chest area called "herringbones" which closed at the ends on both Jackets and Frockcoats. Historical Information: Complaints poured in from the field that the frockcoat issued in 1851 was unsuitable for enlisted men while mounted. So in 1854 the Dragoons, Mounted Artillery and Mounted Rifles were given (back) the waist length jacket for Dress and Undress in a slightly modified version. The 1854 Jacket had the shoulder tabs removed and the waistline pockets were deleted. Also, the collar height was lowered slightly from the 1846 model. The 1858 jackets are essentially the same as the M-1854/5 model jackets except the collar was again lowered slightly.
Chevrons and/or Sash (if pictured or not) are NOT included in the base price. Material and Color Samples Page. |
