The clothing issued [to the 2nd Texas in Galveston in late 1864] is very inferior........ [but] The condition of arms, accoutrements, etc., cannot be excelled by any regiment of the service. The guns, especially, are kept in excellent condition, and in some companies approach a standard of perfection.                     
Lt. J.T. Scott, Acting Inspector General, 1864
