thanks Steve, i got a headache trying to get that stuff situated in the case,took me about an hour the first time and when i picked it up all the small stuff fell to the bottom ...a bit of double sided tape fixed that problem tho. my plan was just to put the flask in there with some civil war photos i had printed out but that changed as i was going through some of the boxes of finds.

Steve and RH those are some really nice display's! I would love to find some civil war relics someday to be able to display like that.

Steve - I think almost all states pressed people into service at the beginning of the Civil War and most states would gather the troops in a common area to practice and outfit. The town green was a popular place.
Maybe you can read up on Minn and the war effort as to this gathering aspect. Good luck, Steve in so az

Gee, nice displays.
The only displays I have are the ones I give away.
Maybe one to have here at the house would be nice.
Great idea guys.
Thanks for sharing.
