From: trwagner@bronze.ucs.indiana.edu (theodore wagner) I am interested in where to buy military uniforms for a collection I wish to begin. I am interested in both original and replicas of the originals. I am mostly interested in U.S. Civil War uniforms. Also, does anyone know who I might contact for Civil War groups who do reenactments? Thanks in advance ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | *Ted "Guardian Angel" | trwagner@bronze.ucs.indiana.edu | | Bloomington, Indiana USA | trwagner@silver.ucs.indiana.edu | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
