The 146th New York Infantry Regiment, nicknamed Garrard’s Tigers, was a Federal regiment mustered into service October 10th, 1862. The regiment was raised and organized in Rome, New York and was known as the 5th Oneida Regiment. Another nickname, and more widely known by civil war historians, was Halleck’s Infantry, after New York born Major General Henry Halleck. You will notice Gen Halleck’s name on this figure’s flag. At first the regiment wore the regular dark blue Federal state jacket, light blue trousers, and standard forage cap. In June of 1863 the regiment switched, changing their uniforms to the colorful zouave dress. This new uniform was not actually zouave, but rather the colorful dress of French-Turco style with the most distinctive features being the sky blue zouave jacket with yellow trimming, a red fez with yellow tassel, sky blue trousers with red sash.
