Is this how the average Continental Army soldier actually dressed? - /k/ (#63941967) [Archived: 467 hours ago]

I've always been under the impression that it was mainly the officers who dressed like pic related and most of the enlisted men were stuck wearing rags/civilian clothes due to a constant shortage of uniforms, is this accurate or did the Continental Army actually dress like a proper army of the time?

between the very start of the army up until 1776 there was a real lack of any standard so members wore whatever they found useful, by 1776 Washington was able to set some sort of standard especially in regards to the blue you see, but it wasn't until a few years later especially when the frogs joined and supply lines solidified that you saw wide spread use of the uniform most associate with the continental army

even for those who did get "official" uniforms, their colors varied wildly

There were dudes who wore red, beige, blue, green, brown coats with an equal number of colors of trim/facings

This might be a silly question, but how many on the Patriot side actually served for the entire duration of the war? Like, if you were serving in the Continental Army at Yorktown in 1781, what were your chances of encountering a survivor of Lexington and Concord, or Bunker Hill in the ranks? Was it common or did they have a constant stream of newfags coming and going? Eight years is a long time.

Are we talking desertion as "go home and don't come back" or "go home for the winter and come back in the spring"? I remember reading how the majority of casualties the Army of Northern Virginia suffered the Battle of Fredericksburg in 1862 were men classified as "missing" who had actually fucked off and gone home for Christmas and subsequently returned over the next few months.

Everyone forgets that it wasn't just militia or the Continental Army who fought. At bunker Hill for instance Rhode Island showed up with what amounted to a tiny self contained Army of it's own complete with standardized uniforms and it's own Artillery and logistics train.

This is bias because I love irregularity, but my view on uniforms in history is that uniformality rapidly breaks down and is difficult to even get to exist in the first place. We saw how even for a hyper advanced industrialized state like the US circa 2003 we were still bungling shit camo wise. Now that was also due to going across the world but you can still imagine how quickly logistics and supplies or just plain corruption as well as the men being too tired and the officers too busy (or uninterested) to maintain regulations.

Not service-wide. Cut, color, and trim could vary by job or unit and officer uniforms were often highly customized.

Certain members of the continentals and loyalists both ended up wearing green (being one of the cheapest/most available colors at the time, same as why the britbongs were using red) and it ended up leading to a few cases of them being mistaken for friendlies by the enemy

That's also true for the european powers. Creating a uniform dye is harder then it seems and many uniforms were in a sort of "off-color x". Approximations of the desired "standard colors" were enough.
And then there were of course the whole different styles of coats, cuts, facings, buttons, coat pockets, etc. that were all at the discretion of the proprietor of a given regiment. Armies of the 18th century were far less uniform (regarding the details) than often imagined.

It's not.
European generals favored highly visible and identifiable uniforms because they allowed troops to be recognized. Units wore brightly colored coats, and different colored lapels and turnbacks allowed for officers and men to distinguish between different units of the same army.
That not all redcoats were the same red doesn't invalidate that. That redcoats adapted to local condition, cutting down hats and coats, and merged local native legwear with the European gaiter doesn't invalidate that.

The creation of the dyes was not uniform simply by the manufacturing realities of the 18th century and the fact that multiple manufacturers produced uniforms in a given country.
And then there is also the simple fact that dyes just fade with time and exposure to the elements.

They regulars had uniforms and contracts, they were paid money to serve for a year as full-time soldiers. The irregulars were literally anyone with a gun in whatever clothes they had, often under the command of regulars or simply defending their local territory from government forces.

>>63942085

The numbers fluctuated a lot, many people simply did their time and went back home, and the combat mortalities were also rather low. Despite this, the Revolutionaries consistently outperformed the British in combat casualties.

It was not like the GWOT or Vietnam. These men were trained to a high standard and well armed. They outperformed their counterparts in combat, taking fewer combat casualties, despite being raised directly from the civilian population as insurgents.

Going to war does not mean you have to die, in fact, most survived. And yes, while it was a brutal war, many men were actually excited to see real combat.

At Saratoga, for example, 90 were killed out of 9,000. So you had a 99.99% chance of surviving, and if you fell, you were immortalized as a hero of the nation and found gentle rest as a God believing man.

They weren't hated, the founding fathers were just very uneasy about the concept of a standing army in general because of how it could be used oppressively. They understood it was necessary to properly fight the British, they just decided they would mostly get rid of it after the war, which they more or less did, the Legion of the United States from 1792-1796 was only ~2500 guys whose sole function was more or less to guard the western border from Indian attacks

It varied a lot by region and even then you're naive if you think people were welcoming to soldiers, even if they were "their boys".
The concept of soldier worship and being proud of "your" army is fairly modern, the bulk of common folk in the 18th century viewed soldiers as being universally a bunch of bandits and hooligans.

Yeah, it takes the 19th century nationalization of the army to make people view it as something other than rapists, drunkards, bandits, thugs and general failures. Still wild to me how that Prussian fag got his grenadiers by sending his men all around Europe to get +6 foot guys drunk then kidnap them and make them enlist.

>>63944464
Unless soldiers make up such a population as to be influential in terms of votes (or revolutionary potential) they will always be treated like cheap abused whores by the state. This isn't mocking soldiers it's mocking the state because it took WW2 and the male voting nation being in some way a veteran to actually get good treatment that'd endure past the war period and even then judging from the battle of athens the preference would have been to tell the soldiers to fuck off but there were too damn many of them.

>>63945225
There's discussion as to the percentages of the population that was pro-crown vs pro-revolutionary. The usual shorthand I hear cited is 1/3 1/3/ 1/3 for each group, but I remember hearing numbers there were more generous to the pro-revolutionary, something like 40% in favor of independence, 20% loyal to crown and the rest didn't give a shit. This was from my brain recollection, but I asked the chatbot and for sources https://www.ushistory.org/us/11b.asp

It'd also obviously vary depending on location. Northeast and it's

?
weren't cities the one part were loyalists had a stronghold.
"British forces seized control of other cities, including Philadelphia (1777), Savannah, Georgia (1778โ€“83), and Charleston, South Carolina (1780โ€“82). But 90% of the colonial population lived outside the cities, with the effective result that Congress represented 80 to 90 percent of the population."

Sort of. Varied by time period.
1775: Lexington & Concord through Cambridge and Boston and Siege of Quebec: most soldiers wore civilian clothes in the beginning and were often armed with fowling pieces or muskets from wherever they could get them, and there were plenty of them. Civilian coats and jackets, knee breeches, small clothes, mix of other accoutrements dominated. Wool greatcoats, wool caps or hunting shirts and hunting frocks became far more common by 1776, especially for 9-month recruits.

1776: Hunting frocks and hunting shirts became a de facto standard, but many regiments formed in this time adopted different colors: blue coats faced red for NJ regiments, gray coats faced green for NY, brown faced red for Pennsylvania, or blue coats with buff facings. The winter of 1776-1777 saw the distribution of "lottery coats" of either blue with red facings or brown with red facings. Everyone liked the blue coats better, usually to distinguish from the British regulars in the field.

1777-1778: shortages plagued the army throughout the war, so some of the lottery coats became standard, but hunting shirts and frocks were common. usual kit included either a Brown Bess or Charleville musket, a bayonet and scabbard and frog, a black or brown leather cartridge box and white webbing, a canteen, a haversack, probably a blanket or simple camp gear, knee breeches and small clothes of white linen or wool, half-gaiters to keep your shoes on in the mud (unless you ate your shoes over the winter), a military cocked hat rather than civilian tricorn.

1779-1780: The Continental Army uniform regulations established blue with white facings for New England regiments, blue with red facings for Middle Atlantic regiments, and blue with buff facings for the Southern regiments. In practice, it rarely happened, and there were shortages all the way through.

1781+: Late war, it was mostly the same but with white long pants or "overalls."

War of Rights recently released a 1776 mode to celebrate 4th of july. So if you're into this kind of stuff, get it while it's on discount. Very intense 400 player battles.

I know it's a big number by video game standards, but it's still not even a single batallion of infantry

wrong, a battalion wasn't over 400
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Cowpens#Continental_force
>A battalion of Continental infantry under Lieutenant Colonel John Eager Howard of Baltimore, with one company from Delaware ("Delaware Line"), one from Virginia, and three from the famous stalwart "Maryland Line" regiment, each with a strength of 60 men (300)
>A Virginia militia battalion under Frank Triplett (160)
>A battalion of North Carolina militia under Colonel Joseph McDowell (260โ€“285)

My mistake, seems I'm retarded for assuming they'd be similar

Itโ€™s really interesting the selective history spammed by /pol/ and Ziggers in these threads. Almost like the troll farms want to disrupt the consensus among Americans that we need to partner with the UK and follow their lead in countering Russian influence.

How about you cite specific posts and point out inaccuracies instead of being a faggot about it? Come on man.

Where do you see zigger nonsense in this thread anon? We're just discussing Continental Army uniforms and how it was a bit of a shitshow.

Those uniforms were mostly a very late 1770s and very early 1780s thing. Uniforms existed in 1775, 1776, and 1777, but it took a little while to standardize the Continental Army's appearance more. Even by the tail end of the 1770s, there were ragtag militia looking fellows in the Continental Army, but efforts were generally made to accommodate them with uniforms and better equipment whenever possible.
