#4795 - Civil War Veterans Corps Hat Cord Civil War Period Hat cord used on Hardee hats of infantry & artillery as well as the slouch hats of cavalrymen to denote their branch of service. This light gray indicated assignment to the Veterans Corps in which injured and debilitated soldiers still could serve in non-combatant roles during the course of the Civil War. This was likely issued and actually used for it has a thread-reinforcing repair along the large side hat loop. The tassels are in great shape. Such hat cords were not much saved after the Civil War and thus are a bit hard to find these days.
