<p>[QUOTE=&quot;springfld.arsenal, post: 57795, member: 54&quot;]Uniform is not correct for a US Naval Officer of any period I know of-jacket wrong, buttons wrong, sword wrong type, etc.&nbsp; Just take the buttons-they have an anchor, with vertical stock.&nbsp; All USN officer unif. buttons since 1851 have featured an eagle perched on a horizontal anchor.&nbsp; Suspect fraternal uniform, or maybe some other navy, naval militia, maritime, but not USN.&nbsp; Pic below:&nbsp; left-old ones, right, newer.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/uploads//monthly_04_2013/post-11058-0-43138000-1365243588.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
