My good buddy Mark (Veteran of the 1st ID - Gulf War) visited me, he gave me this cap he used in re-enactment. The insignia are of the 7th Illinois Cavalry (on the side is a harp = Irish soldier). Never mind the book on Bucharest (present from my Fiancée).

Great present from your buddy. I'm sure you are delighted to add that to your collection!

Yes, it was a nice gift. A day or two, we talked via messenger and he said I could have the Union Cavalry shell jacket too. This is the closest I will get in having a few Civil War items, but I'm sure happy with this stuff.
A reading corner, surrounded by history .... sounds good in my book. A place to relax, read a book, or just mesmerize ....
