Brown served in company K of the 7th Georgia Home Guard also known as the Cobb Repellers. The unit was made up of old men and young boys and served around Atlanta and at Andersonville, Georgia. The sword has an overall deep dark un touched patina with what appears to be a replaced scabbard. The scabbard fits the sword perfect and has a matching patina.
