I found this photo a month or two ago, but i had difficulty with an actual ID. Originally it was on a State of Iowa historical page with no mention of who they were. After much searching I came up with a possibility.......Third Iowa Infantry. I'm not going to swear to that, but I will leave it up to you. A cool photo regardless. :cool:

What's up with the cap guy? Besides being the only one with a cap, his coat and even his sword seems different. The other two swords blades are rather straight, his is curved.
 
There is a 3rd Iowa website that includes this image in its photo gallery. No other information is provided, but someone there is also searching, as are you, for a confirmed ID. On CivilWarTalk, back on April 11, 2013, Johan Steele posted this picture and identified the group as Company F. This is all I could find.
