Product Overview
The Army Corps Badges – Civil War are accurate reproductions of the identification insignia worn by soldiers of the Union Army during the American Civil War.
These badges were commonly worn on the top or left side of forage caps or kepis, and were also sometimes displayed over the left breast of the uniform. They served as a visual system to identify a soldier’s corps and division on the battlefield.
Each badge color represents a specific division within an Army Corps:
-
Red — First Division
-
White — Second Division
-
Blue — Third Division
Designed for Civil War reenactment, living history impressions, display, or collection, these corps badges provide an essential and historically correct detail for Union Army uniforms.
Please select both the Division and Company when ordering.
