The Common Soldier

Fort Ward Museum and Historic Site
3901 W Braddock Rd

This exhibit features objects from the museum's permanent collection that illustrate the daily life of the typical Union soldier. Among the equipment displayed are examples of Springfield and Enfield rifle-muskets, cartridge and cap boxes, a knapsack, mess utensils and a variety of personal objects used for leisure-time activities. Of special interest is a protective vest called body armor and a denim shell jacket with Federal eagle buttons which is recorded as having been worn by a black soldier in the U.S. Army.
