A fabulous grouping of George Pfaltzgraf, 46 Ohio Infantry, Chief Scout (SPY) of the 1st Division, 15 Corps under Generals Corse, Walcutt, and Woods. This incredible grouping has Pfaltzgraf's Shiloh Survivor badge, G.A.R. cabinet card, Association of Battle of Shiloh Survivors card, A brochure for the 66th Aniversary of the Battle of Shiloh Survivors Reunion-1928, Indiana GAR badge, and several cut outs from newspapers. There are three newspaper articles. Two discus Pfaltzgraf death and one was an in depth interview with his photo wearing the National Association of Battle of Shiloh Suvivors badge included in the grouping. George Pfaltzgraf joined the 46 Ohio Infantry as a musician and became the drum major of the band. In the newspaper article he says at the battle of Shiloh "I coundn't stand being shot at and not firing back". He picked up a rifle and became an infantryman. Later he became a scout (spy) and ultimately became the Chief Scout of the 1st Division, 15 Corp with 27 other scouts reporting to him. Twelve miles outside of Memphis he was captured by General Wheeler's men. He was taken before General Wheeler and when he refused to talk about Sherman's plans, Wheeler ordered him hanged. The rope was fitted around his neck and thrown over a limb, and he decided the Confederates were serious. He gave the Odd Fellows distress signal and was not hanged. He was locked in a pig sty and guarded. At midnight a new guard came on post and was an Odd Fellow. Pfaltzgraf convinced him to let him go and he ran for his life. "I made my way back to our army and soon was in the battle of Missionary Ridge. I served as scout three years. I was in the Vicksburg campaign, on Sherman's march to Atlanta, his march to the sea, and witnessed the surrender of Gen. Joseph E. Johnson." What a story! What a group! How many times have we said I wonder who owned that? Here is a grouping you will never ask that question!!!!

A beautiful Delaware Grand Army of the Republic badge. A large hanger has "Delaware" on it. Attached to the hanger is a yellow ribbon with two US flags that are sewn on. Attached to the ribbon is a celluloid disk with a basket holding peaches. Due to Delaware's small size, badges are extremely hard to find. I have this and a few others due to a long time collector paring down his collection. There is a very small piece of acid free tape supporting the celluloid disk where it is attached to the ribbon.

Absolutely beautiful United Confederate badge worn at the 1909 Alabama Division reunion held in Montgomery. The top brass type hanger has a celluloid strip with "Delegate" on it.

A great badge worn by members of Post 23 in New Jersey and Massachusetts at the 1892 Grand Army of the Republic national encampment held in Washington, D.C. A large mosquito is on the brass type hanger. The hanger is approximately 3 inches by 2 3/4 inches with a long pin on the back. Attached to the hanger is a long red ribbon with silver graphics. Written on the badge is "WASHINGTON - 1892 - Twenty Sixth National Encampment - JOS. HOOKER - Mass. - Post 23 - AAron Wilkes - N.J." A metal tassel hangs from the ribbon. The approximate size of this badge is 12 inches by 2 3/4 inches. Several GAR posts paired with other similar posts in other states to create a ribbon to be worn by their members at the national encampment. You normally find the mosquito on New Jersey badges. That is probably why the Jos. Hooker - Mass. is highlighted in silver and the Aaron Wilkes post is not. What a great ribbon.
