Eleventh Regiment reunion ribbon. The badge at the top of the ribbon shows the regiment logo in detail – an anchor crossing a cannon barrel on a field of 13 stars contained within a shield. The logo, reproduced on the top of the Ninth and Eleventh Regiment building, is still there. The honoree of the ribbon, General Walter Harriman, was a two-term governor of NH. There is a statue of Harriman on the town green in Warner. More about Harriman can be read in the town history of Warner, written by Harriman. The full text of the town history can downloaded from the Library of Congress here.
