SIDE NOTES: LIVING IN THE DEEP SOUTH AND SOME FRIENDS ARE RE-ENACTORS OF THE WAR BETWEEN THE STATES, OLD FEEDSACKS ARE PRIZED, NOT FOR THEIR COLORS, ETC. BUT BECAUSE IN ORDER TO ACCURATELY WEAR THE 1860S STYLES OF SOME OF THE SOUTHERN SOLDIERS, THE RE-ENACTORS DESIRE THE OLD FEEDSACKS BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT THE ORIGINAL SOLDIERS' SHIRTS WERE MADE FROM.
