Summary
DescriptionCivil War Signal Corps Kit.jpg |
English: Various elements of a typical Regulation Civil War Signal Corps Kit, from top to bottom: two signal flags, two torches, one a Foot Torch, the other a Flying Torch. The Flying Torch has attachments for use with a long pole and could thus be used by mounted personnel. The artifact on the bottom is an extremely rare, unfired Civil War Army and Navy Signal Rocket. These artifacts are in the collection of the United States Army Historical Collection. Photo by Pablo Jimenez-Reyes. |
