Chronicle of Military and Armed services uniforms in Europe

By Paul Waring


The red colour was the uniforms color, adopted by the regiment permanent first of the British military, Yeoman of the Guard, Beefeaters, all through the reign of Henry VIII. In 1645, this colour was adopted at the time of the first standing military was raised. Red n ' wasn't used to hide the bloodstains. to be exact each armed forces adopted certain colours like their national colours. French soldiers inclined to carry blue; Russians carried green; Colombia s ' equipped with red. With thoese aren't infantry carrying a color bright red, with white cross-belts and coppers shining, simpler targets? Nonetheless in the years 1860, strategies of combat were rather dissimilar from those applied aujourd ' today.

Before 1866, longarms British was loading by the mouth of the weapons.

To charge these weapons critical to an infantryman with: 1) to be held upright to charge a load with powder and balls downwards in the mouth. 2) to be very close to the enemy so as to strike them, due to the inaccuracy of the arquebus. 3) to hold close full for the cooking of volleyball. It was the quantity of projectiles which counts, not camouflage.

In 1867 , however , the war and times change. With the advent of loading by the cylinder head of rifles of l ' British military in 1866, the quality of the light weapons modified considerably. Faster of the rates of set light to, by a weapon much more reliable, which may be charged in the belly, slowly started to change the tactical doctrines of the army. Change of tactic was not also fast; it might have been because during the last half the years 1800, the Brit army a mode military, provided in a corresponding way isn't beaten. In substance, the tactics used were those which had a direction with the old style of firearms; the methods were to still develop/move to use the weapons most recent. It's a surprise that, recently, the lessons of these new weapons showed the North American Civil War (1861 - 1865) n ' were not soaked up by the British.

Though the great majority of the EU nations had observers on the two sides, lessons which should have been drawn were rejected, because one worked out that this war was an isolated case, set by a geography is like any in Europe. Moreover, he was regarded as a fight" between the undisciplined militaries wrong. It was necessary to await end of the year 1800 that l ' khaki uniform was delivered, l ' English armed forces carry out finally that uniforms of leaden colour provided a better camouflage in answer to more exact, more quickly the weapons of shooting by employing the powder without smoke. Once more, the methods continued d ' to show a delay and that was required l ' hecatomb of the first World War to persuade the authorities qu ' there had been an obligation to put at l ' shelter and to remain concealed, in opposition to the position upright in the formations of combat.

Uniform of the woman The women of the garrison had a uniform less authorized but which provided the structure of class and the social order of the time. The better halves of the men in the rows wore a cotton dress linked with apron and of a capillary prosthesis called 'avanon. Their shoes are made of leather plain common to the period. It on the other hand distinct with the more decorated dress was carried by the marry d ' an officer, in agreement with his position as a voter of the higher class. In the same way, civilians employed by the Military of 1867 had their own kind of wearing of clothing which indicated their role inside l ' Armed forces. The Master of the college carried a black, knuckles frock coat length, while l ' teacher wore a skirt, shirt and the cut of jacket in a style known commonly as a "zouave" jacket, like the uniforms carried by the units "zouave" which were helpful in the Civil American War.
