Hello Mr. Hurd,
As a new member of the S.C.V., Flat Top Copperheads, Camp # 1694, I was delighted to find your book. I plan to check to see if any of our members have this book, and if not I will have to purchase a copy. I do living history for school groups, etc. and am presently putting together a VA Sharpshooter impression. Perhaps you could answer a question for me about these VA Sharpshooter units? Would you know which VA units wore a patch as some other units in SC, GA and AL did? One AL unit wore a red trefoil made from red flannel to desegnate that man was a sharpshooter. This is the kind of data that I need on VA units. Thanks!

Respectfully,

Kenneth J.Thrift
