36thIDAlex Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Hey all, I decided to take some family portraits of my uniform collection before I head off to school this year. All pieces are IDd, named, and researched. Most have photos of the veterans as well. Only ones not included are a few pieces of named field and a few named non-WWII uniforms. You might see an infantry theme as I am attempting to collect a named uniform from each infantry division of the European theater. Enjoy! GEN. David R. Atchinson- MO State Guard ACW PVT. John H.

patches Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Great collection, very striking the way you photoed them. Link to post Share on other sites
Ray42 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Very nice, still a fan of the ship detachment uniform I talked to you about on Facebook when you posted there but it is impossible to not be a fan of any of those uniforms. Hope you find some great stuff while you are at school. Link to post Share on other sites
