As every change in the uniform of the Army had to 

 be approved by the Secretary of War, records of his 

 office maintained in Record Group 107 are of value. 

 This Group contains his letters sent to the Quarter- 

 master General and preceding officers and registers of 

 incoming letters which contain a synopsis of the con- 

 tents as well as action taken and where the letters 

 were sent. 



Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's 

 Office, contains all of the orders that formally author- 

 ized specific changes in uniforms and frequently con- 

 tains the reports of boards con\'ened to discuss such 

 changes. The letters-sent volumes contain additional 

 information on the decisions of the Secretary of War 

 on interpretation of existing orders or minor matters 

 not deemed worthy of an individual order. 



In certain cases the chiefs of branches of the Army 

 maintained vers' complete files on changes in the uni- 

 forms of their particular sen.'ice. Record Group 77, 

 Records of the Chief of the Clorps of Engineers, letters 

 sent and received, contains correspondence and draw- 

 ings of the chapeau of that corps. Also in Record Group 

 77 are the records of the Corps of Topographical En- 

 gineers, which contain a fairly complete file of letters 

 sent and received on the chapeau and forage cap 

 adopted in 1839.
