EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the essence of a Green Coat worn by a Berdan Sharpshooter during the United States Civil War. The coat belonged to Sergeant William F. Tilson, Company E, 2nd United States Sharp Shooters, who was wounded an astonishing nine times in battle, including at Gettysburg.
The green color of the coat served as effective camouflage for sharpshooters like Tilson, allowing them to blend into their surroundings and pick off enemy targets with deadly accuracy. This garment not only provided protection from the elements but also played a crucial role in Tilson's survival on the battlefield.
The intricate details of this uniform speak volumes about the harsh realities faced by soldiers during one of America's most tumultuous periods. From its sturdy construction to its practical design, every aspect of this Green Coat tells a story of courage and sacrifice.
