This is the FeR/FAH00013 15th Georgia rebranded.

North Carolina developed an excellent Quartermaster uniform supply system during the Civil War and although not that colorful I wanted to replicate the 1861 NC regulation state issued uniform. The blouse, trousers and blanket are NC issue.

To get the NC sack coat, I shortened the kit frock coat by about 8 mm, added epaulette and rolled collar. Since he carries an Enfield cartridge box, I gave him an after market printed Enfield. Added a tin cup, and hat cords. NC had local fabric meals and I came up with my eyeball interpretation of their grey based on a surviving original NC sack coat, Troiani & Rocco prints and what I consider accurate reproduction reenactor uniforms. Same with the blanket. I also flipped the canteen which I feel was more common than the embossed side.
