1800’s French Military Uniform
Today’s Military Uniforms
where did all the style go
where was the time when you could just
out-fab your opponents

REBLOGGING BECAUSE OF EVERYTHING OMFG
Historically the “style” died in 1914 because the French would wear bright blue and red uniforms and the British said “that’s a bad idea” and the French said “we look great” then they got sniped.
I visited a WWI battlefield a few years ago and Canadian soldiers used to wear these metal plates on their backs to show that they weren’t German but they reflected sunlight really well so when they tried to hide they were p much as bright as a goddamn lighthouse
