That is a coll grouping. Are there any photos of the construction of the road?

Great collection

Engineer Maintenance Companies performed 2nd and 3rd echlon maintenance.

Here is a photo of a DI in the collection of the Army Engineer Museum at Fort Leonard Wood.

A great museum with a very professional staff. I traveled six hours to see the museum and was not disappointed.

This is the type of 5 button coat that was introduced in 1874. However this coat was made after 1884 as evidenced by the 3 buttons on the cuff (coats before 1884 only has two buttons). These coats were phased out in 1904, except for the coast artillery. These coats were issued to coast artillery at least until 1910. Your coat dates to definitely after the turn of the century, as evidenced by the chevrons.

Sarge, These little strap looking devices are attachments to for the Spanish War Veteran's Association Medal. There was a great article in JOMSA a few years back.

Alonzo, The unit history for the 2nd Engineers lists a Private James E Caldwell as being KIA. Later it lists a Bulger Verne V. Caldwell as bing awarded the Croix-de-Guerre.

THe 2nd Engineers is a really cool unit. Check out the article about the 2nd Engineers in Army History Magazine at this link http://www.history.army.mil/armyhistory/AH58newOCR.pdf
