Civil War era US Army and Marine Officer's- Epaulettes -
By 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. Attaching hardware and "How To" instructions
are included.
(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.
