You got to LOVE friends like these! :lol:

 

From a picker friend/yard sale buddy of mine.

 

Has anyone seen a set up like this? :thumbsup:

 

The crossed (?) on the from of the cover is not sabres and too thick for crossed rifles. Got to be crossed cannons.

 

Confirm?

It is most likley the 47th Feild artillery regiment, which from what I could find was part of the 16th Division, which later became the 37th Division.

That's a neat find. A mounted canteen like this one would make sense for a horse drawn artillery unit. That's a great piece.
