artu44 Posted May 28, 2009 Share #1 Posted May 28, 2009 I'm really not into american stencil, it's only a big mess to me. Could you explain me these ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spathologist Posted May 28, 2009 Share #2 Posted May 28, 2009 The top marking looks to be from the 66th New York Infantry Regiment, probably A Company. The "1" could mean 1st Platoon or some inventory number. The bottom stencil, I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artu44 Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted May 28, 2009 Thanks a lot. It's a 65 not a 66. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
world war I nerd Posted May 28, 2009 Share #4 Posted May 28, 2009 "R.D." could be the soldier's initials and the numeral "6" his company roster number, which may have have been stenciled on the rest of his web equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
