I am attempting to send a photo ...hope it works. I was told that this was a photo of my Great-Grandfather, Jacob F. Hahnen (Hahnenkratt) who was with the 2nd Iowa Cavalry. The person didn't know what type of uniform this was ... does anyone know if this a Civil War uniform? Thanks very much.

Still this is a great image and if the fire department can be identified of historic value.
 
I like the uniform, and I would say post war for sure because it is a CDV. That said I know CDVs were popular from their introduction, I just prefer tin or glass.
