Does anybody have any documentation, or picture of the practice of "cut down sack coats" in the western theatre? Also any documentation of enlisted men adding in pockets to their uniforms?
thanks for all the help,

You should really send John Wedeward an email, and when you do... tell him to post it on here.

Fellas if you look real close at the middle of the picture of the federal company of the 78th penna vols on top of look out mtn in october of 63, you will find that one of the boys has cut slit pocket into the left lower breast of his sack coat. Native

Now, now, what do you think that old boy put in his pocket that was out of the way of knapsack straps, and provided quick draw capabilities?
Pun intended.
