A Close-Up of an Ammunition Pouch on a Bronze Sculpture of a Soldier

A Close-Up of an Ammunition Pouch on a Bronze Sculpture of a Soldier

This bronze sculpture, at Corinth Contraband Camp, is known as “USCT” (an acronym for United States Colored Troops). The bronze figures in the park all depict some facet of daily life, from when the camp was active. This photograph provides a close-up of the soldier's bandolier pouch, which was likely where he stored his ammunition. The pouch has a badge that is embossed with a US.
