What did the British uniforms look like in the American Revolution?
Answer:
Most, though not all, British uniforms were red and did not blend in very well with the woods that they were fighting in. This is where the name "redcoats" came from, which you may or may not have heard about. The uniforms stood out, thus making the British pretty much the opposite of camouflaged. Hope this helps! Let me know if you'd like more information!
~cddsuperstar hello cdd also the british wore different clothing for their rank so the generals and high commands were spotted easier
Some British units had uniforms of other colors. For example, the British Legion, a regiment of dragons, wore green uniforms with black lether helmets.
