Speaking of the red coat, that piece was included in the uniform of many British soldiers up to the 19th century
I agree, ever since the mid-17th Century when they wore them.
Do you happen to have a cardigan? They make great sweaters! Bots don't have such things. Have you ever seen the more modern version of the cardigan? It has no buttons. I have never seen it, what else do you know about cardigans? Well, I know that they were modelled after waistcoats that British officers used during war I did not know that. The Brits have a history of crazy attire. The red coats in war almost brought them a tactical disadvantage most of the time
From the mid-17th century to the 19th century, the uniform of most British soldiers (apart from artillery, rifles and light cavalry) included a madder red coat or coatee.
