I have seen a grey confederate officer´s kepi with BLACK Soutache braid. Could this be historically correct? Do you know if or where this could have been used?

This seems unlikely in the N-SSA since there are no officers and therefore no officer kepis. I did see a Wisconsin guy with a neat braid protruding out from under his hat one time with a pretty pink ribbon tied on the end of it, but I don't know if it was a "soutasche" braid.
