Measures 18 ½” x 25”, circa 1890-1900. The corps badge design is two-sided, sewn on with two rows of zig-zag stitching. There is also an inner accent stitching. Overall condition is fine, with some soiling and water staining on the hoist area. Some very minor mothing. Would look much better if cleaned. This is one of a group that came from a military museum.
This corps was established 22 July 1862 from various Union troops stationed in southeastern Virginia. The corps' main combat action occurred in the spring of 1863, when it faced Confederate troops of James Longstreet's Corps in Suffolk, Virginia. Commanders were:
John Adams Dix 22 July 1862 – 16 July 1863
Henry Morris Naglee 16–20 July 1863
George W. Getty 20 July – 1 August 1863
The corps was discontinued on August 1, 1863, and its troops were transferred to the Eighteenth Corps. [LD]
