Officer's Civil War & Indian Wars
Hat Cords
Hand Twisted
This is the Officer's Hat cord
for the Hardee hat and Slouch Hats. Regulations call for a Gold and Black
hat cord for all officer's except Generals who wear all gold, with the gold
being gold bullion. It was used for both the Civil War & Indian Wars. There is also a Non-Regulation Hat Cord of Gold Bullion and Branch Colors
available for Officer's of the Artillery, Cavalry and Infantry.
Staff and Field Officers, Regulation: Black Silk and Gold Bullion
hat cord. On some of these the acorn is reversed with a gold bullion tip and
black netting. This hat cord is available either in machine braided or hand
twisted. The hand twisted is thicker cording.
General Officers, Regulation: Gold Bullion hat cord for all
Generals.
Artillery, NON-Regulation: Red Silk and Gold Bullion hat
cord.
Cavalry, NON-Regulation: Yellow Silk and Gold Bullion hat
cord. This one looks very much like the Generals and you have to look close
to see that there is yellow silk and it is not all gold bullion.
Infantry, NON-Regulation: Light Blue Silk and Gold Bullion
hat cord.

Medical Officer
Optional storage box
Worn on the Dress Coat for all ranks from 1855 through 1871 and for Generals through 1889.
In 1872 all ranks, except for Generals, went to the Shoulder Knot (Russian Knot). These epaulettes include the
attachment devices, but Rank Insignia and Regimental Disk are extra. The regimental disk must be custom
ordered and takes about 12 weeks.
Junior Grade Officer epaulettes have 1/8" diameter fringe. The rank insignia on each
epaulette is: 2nd Lieutenant - no rank insignia and 1st Lieutenant - 1 bar.
Company Grade Officer epaulettes have 1/4" diameter fringe. The rank insignia on each
epaulette is: Captain - 2 bars.
Senior and General Officer epaulettes have 1/2" diameter fringe. The rank insignia on
each epaulette is: Major - no rank insignia, Lieutenant Colonel - 1 silver oak leaf, Colonel - 1 Silver Eagle,
Brigadier General 1 star (1.5"), Major General - 2 stars (1 - 1.5" & 1 - 1.25"), Major General
Commanding/Lieutenant General 3 stars (1 - 1.5", 1 - 1.25" & 1 - 1.125" Note: We do not have
the smallest star available, so you would need to use 2 - 1.25" stars.).
Medical Officer epaulettes are identical to
the Line Officer Epaulettes except they have the gold Wreath and silver M.S.
letters in Old English embroidered in the crescent. Different diameters of
fringe (and rank insignia) designated the various ranks of surgeon.
Epaulettes as worn by Assistant Surgeon (Captain Rank- 1/4" fringe
diameter). Two silver bars (per strap) need to be ordered to compete the
rank structure. Junior Asst Surgeon (First Lieutenant) with 1/8" fringe
diameter is also available (one pair of silver bars should be ordered).
Regimental Surgeon (rank of Major) has the 1/2" diameter fringe but is
without other rank insignia. Brigade Surgeon uses the same Epaulettes but
order with the Silver Oak Leaf insignia. Medical Officer Epaulettes are
custom order and take 8 to 10 weeks to deliver. Please allow sufficient time
when ordering.
Epaulettes are NOT included with coats, but are available for an additional cost. You
