Catesby’s Coat: 

View On Black
We went on a history tour yesterday through Columbus Georgia… visited the Civil War Naval Museum and the Infantry Museum at Fort Benning. This is the from the Naval Museum. It’s a detail from the coat of Catesby Jones, a very famous, unlucky and somewhat foolhardy commander of ironclads during the civil war. It’s kind of neat to go see something like this, and see old pictures (including the one in the wikipedia article!) where he is wearing the same coat that I actually went and saw. Very cool.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catesby_Jones Catesby’s Coat:
