Civil War era US Army and Marine Officer's- EpaulettesBy Regulations, all US Army and Marine Officers were to wear these gold Epaulettes at all occasions were the Full Dress uniform Frockcoat was worn. Our beautiful reproduction Gold Epaulettes are available in three different diameters of gold fringe for the different ranks! These were used by Second Lieutenant's thru General in Chief from 1855 thru 1871. And by Generals only after that date until 1889. Starting in 1872 officer ranks below General were to use the Shoulder Knots. (Imported) We offer a very nicely made heavy duty (.085 thickness) paste board box to store your Epaulettes in for $19.95. Due to limited quantities, we can only offer these if purchased with Epaulettes. Rank insignia(listed below) are available at extra cost and are in stock.If ordered, they are supplied loose for you to install. The ranks of Second Lieutenant and Major do not have any insignia on the Epaulettes- the fringe diameter designates the rank and no separate insignia is used. Regimental Discs are available at extra cost and take about 10 weeks to get from the maker.(Imported) If you order these, specify Branch of Service and Regimental number desired. These can be ordered thru the specific choice boxes below and are left for you to install. Generals and other officers serving on the General Staff did not wear Regimental discs. |
