The Army Uniform: Wearing Traditions

[longknife]

by ashmccall

For over 200 years, the uniform of a U.S. Army Soldier symbolizes strength and a tradition that spans from the Civil War to present day. While newly enlisted Soldiers learn mostly about their uniform by listening to the folklore passed on by their seniors, the true significance of each uniform has its roots in the books of historians and museum curators.

Check out the images below of Army uniforms, past and present. @ The Army Uniform: Wearing Traditions I remember wearing the “brown boot” uniform with an Ike Jacket.
