US WW1 Era, 116th Field Artillery

This is a 116th Field Artillery, 31st Infantry "Dixie Division" uniform group. Ironically, the uniform was worn by a soldier (Eldric Harris Goodreau) originally from Higganum, Connecticut, not exactly someone from"Dixie". I have more research yet to do on this group but likely this fellow was drafted into the unit to "flesh it out" for wartime service.
