Another episode of the Arms & Uniforms sub-series has arrived! Arms & Uniforms looks at a specific unit from the Civil War to explore how their arms and uniforms changed throughout the war and any impact that this evolution had on the men.
Let’s meet the 72nd Indiana Infantry who was part of the famed Wilder’s Lightning Brigade. When this regiment started off in 1862 their arms, uniforms, and equipment wasn’t much different from any other infantry regiment at that time. This would change though when they went mounted!
