Ya brought up some good Ideas can you or any one else point me to some where I could get some info Military saddle bags? I have a catalog from the American Military Saddle Company out of California. The earliest they offer saddle bags for is 1858 before that date they only offer pommel Holsters and shoe pouch and Valises. This makes me wonder if they used saddle bags before this. Granted a catalog ain't much of a resource to document anything. So if someone could point me in the right direction I'd much appreciate it.

Guys, I've been following this thread with quite a bit of interests, as my knowledge base on horses and and saddlery is absolutely nill, but I thought I'd volunteer this etymological tidbit on the "Shaved tail" thread"
Here's Webster's take on the origins of the word:
"Etymology: from the practice of shaving the tails of newly broken mules to distinguish them from seasoned ones
1 : a pack mule especially when newly broken in
2 usually disparaging : SECOND LIEUTENANT."
here's where I found it. http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?va=shavetails
