COLUMBUS DEPOT 3 SHELLJACKET
|
Although issued to many units in the Army of Tennessee, the various Columbus Depot jackets are often referred to as the “Orphan Brigade Jacket”. From research to date, all jackets issued were made using a wooljean fabric and had either the Medium Blue collar and cuffs or were without any trim color. Wooljean is a fabric that has a wool warp and cotton weft. So even if you portray Cavalry or Artillery and wish to use this jacket, the medium Blue trim color or no trim colors is the correct pattern. |

Atlanta Depot Jacket is shown above

CS ATLANTA DEPOT JACKET A peculiar feature of this jacket is that the front edge of the jacket
on the left side aligns with the edge of the collar, causing the front
edge of the jacket to fall off the centerline of the body. Although somewhat
different in design, this jacket saw considerable service in Western theater
operations. All CS Atlanta Shells are custom order.
