kilgarvan Posted March 8, 2015 Share #1 Posted March 8, 2015 Also just picked this up. Looks to me to be a New York National Guard haversack? Spanish American War era? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyCanteen Posted March 8, 2015 Share #2 Posted March 8, 2015 Do you have a picture of the back? A lot of these were altered during their long service life, and knowing what configuration it is currently in will help. RC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinO Posted March 13, 2015 Share #8 Posted March 13, 2015 Span-Am until the unit was federalized. The 2nd NY became the 105th Field Artillery of the 27th ID for WWI. Looks like Battery D came out of the Bronx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilgarvan Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share #9 Posted March 15, 2015 Awesome! I'm originally from the Bronx!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxrobot Posted April 15, 2016 Share #10 Posted April 15, 2016 If you're from the Bronx, then you know the Kingsbridge Armory. It was the largest in the State (possibly country) for many years. The State built it for the N.Y. National Guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
