4:36 If anyone us woundering why the 29th infantry has the Ying-Yang symbol on their uniforms it is because the 29th was made up predominantly of men whose grandfathers fought in the American Civil War for either side. It represents these men coming together when their ancestors fought and killed eachother. The Blue represents the Union and Grey represents the Confederacy.

Not gonna lie, desert storm was badass looking.

There are no Confederate Uniforms included in this video since it is not an overview of American military uniforms on the whole - the focus is on the U.S. Army only. You will also notice there are no U.S.M.C., Air Force or Navy Uniforms included. Perhaps we will produce videos featuring these and other uniforms in the future. In fact, another video like this covering the variety and depth of Civil War Uniforms and clothing - from the 1859 Harper's Ferry Raid to Reconstruction - is in the pipeline for this winter.

The plan is to do several more - covering American Revolution periods uniforms (American and British) and certainly a Civil War U.S./C.S. and probably a World Wars edition. The goal of this was also to showcase the extent and depth of the costumes we have built/own for film/TV and rent out for production, so we don't have everything, but close to it. No 1830s Seminole War (yet), but we did indeed film a French & Indian War American Loyalist, but had to cut to keep this at 7 minutes, but it will be back for the next one.

We have to thank this man for flighting all these wars!

Then: America Now: Murica

WW2 up to Desert storm era were nice. ACUs were not that great but the new one looks better.

Today: No guns or armor? Boy those budget cuts are tough. . .

Fun fact: The US flag is reversed on a lot of their uniforms because on a flagpole, the stars are the side that touches the pole. Having the stars facing forward signifies that the flag is advancing, not retreating.

Seems that some aren't understand the meaning of the word "Evolution" in the title of this video. Evolution of the United States Army Uniforms - where did they come from, what were they? How? The lineage of the U.S. Army begins with the first militia musters of citizens in the Americas in the early 17th century. It all starts there.

Wow. This guy was definitely dedicated to serve the US army for almost 400 years! That really shows loyalty and dedication!

To save some comments and time regarding discussion about the execution of the hand salute in the video. The palm-out salute - yes, taken from the British and most armies in the 19th century - was used during the entire 19th century as portrayed (Civil War era) - not so much during 18th century, not in the same way. However - the U.S. Army regulations (and then adopted by USMC, etc.) changed the salute to what we know today in 1902. 1902 is when it changed. The NCO stripes also flipped positions to what we know today - in 1902. Big changes in the Army that year for a variety of reasons (they even started regulated PT with this manual), and allot of what's seen during the Civil War changes more to what we know today. I have a copy of the manual right here in my collection. It's all very clear, but this all portrayed correctly in the video. For 1860.

People asking why he skipped the so called "CSA," it's because this video is about United States military uniforms. Not enemies of the United States....

6:15 I salute to you, Private What

Lil story I got: one day when I was about 6 me and my dad went to the dump to drop some stuff off. I found a little plastic army man on the ground I told dad I wanted to take it home and dad said no (probably because it was at the fucking dump 😂) well this older man saw me and said "Here kid I think I have something you'd like" he went to his truck bed filled with trash, rummaged threw it and came back with a old US army pouch. I've had ever since and I didn't know what to do with it and how old it even was. I just learned that it was a from the Vietnam war. That's pretty cool. I've been using it on my airsoft equipment hoping that I'm using it to its full potential. I feel like some people are going to yell at me for not keeping it in the best condition ever but I mean the guy was going to throw it away and I'm using it for what it was meant for.

WW2 through the Grenada/Panama is my favorite. Always been fascinated by those wars and equipment

Grandfather was in Vietnam. Uncle was in Panama. Dad was in Storm/Shield. Cousin was in Iraq. I'll be in today. Thank you to those that serve.

The ACU pattern is no longer the uniform of today, it's actually the OCPs. The ACU pattern is getting decomed in October of next year.

My family's service runs from Antietam and Shiloh thru Ypres and St. Mihael, thru the Sigfried Line and the Ruhr, thru the Punchbowl and Operation Arc Light to the Fulda Gap. I retired after 22 years in the regular Army and my brother retired after 30 years in the regular Air Force and the AFNG. I didn't dream I'd tear up as much as I did watching this video. Great job. Thank you.

Thinking about it, those years were not long ago. Time passes by so quickly, this mean we need to appreciate life because life it too short.

What about OCP's?

I can't wait to see what our uniform is for the war of 2142.

Albeit the choice of music isn't as good in my opinion, this is certainly better than the Business Insider version, covering more uniforms in a concise, but interesting fashion.

For those asking why he skipped the CSA, I don't see an explanation from the posters, but my best guess is because this is "UNITED STATES ARMY". As much you guys may be Americans (I'm a Southerner myself), the CSA was NOT part of the USA, nor did they ever claim or even want to be. This gets to the root of the problem of why I and many other Americans have a hard time understanding how people can fly CSA flags next to USA flags and claim pride in both.

@samallenson4329

6 жыл бұрын

I can understand that - genuinely. To be fair, Confederate uniforms can, in that context, be left out. But as far as the flags go, it's complicated. The Confederacy saw itself, in many respects, as carrying on the finest traditions of the roots of the American idea - resistance to tyranny - whether real or perceived. Lots of Americans disavow the Confederacy because of the idea that it constituted high treason to the United States. But while Confederate states - and their soldiers - may have ended their support for the federal government, they never believed themselves to be abandoning the American idea. Rather, the vast majority believed that they were perpetuating it. If the flags of the Confederacy represent treason, so does the US flag - carried during the revolution by men who betrayed their oaths as former British officers during the French and Indian war, turned their back on their king and country, and waged a war against their own people to create an independent state. But then again, who were "their own people"? That was what the revolution was about, just as much as it was about taxes or politics. The white British population of the colonies never stopped being proud of their ancestors, or totally lost their identity. But perceived political injustices meant that some colonists believed their rights as natural born Englishmen were being violated, and they set out to do what a good Briton does - fight about it. They never said, "I want to consciously betray my country and all that it stands for," but rather, they believed themselves to be speaking up in a debate about freedom, identity, and community within the English speaking world - addressing long standing arguments about rights and liberties. The redcoats called them traitors; we call them patriots. Arguments about policy and politics can lead to new senses of identity - and identity matters. If a group believes themselves to be unwelcome - or violated - they'll fight for the freedom to do things their own way. Our founding fathers were, in the finest definition of the word, traitors - guilty of high treason; natural born Englishmen who betrayed their country and people. But did they really, in the classic sense? Asserting such seems rather ignorant and despotic. Confederate leaders, such as Robert E. Lee (whose own father was a close friend of George Washington and a hero of the revolution) were keenly aware of this. They believed wars against established authority to be a matter of principle, deeply rooted in what it meant to be an American. Our country was founded on high treason, rebellion, and resistance to people that one group or another perceived as tyrants. The problem is that there's something inherently American about being a rebel. Here are some quotes from Author James McPherson, who read 20,000 letters from Union and Confederate soldiers written during the war: Invoking his state’s revolutionary motto, Sic Semper Tyrannis, a young Virginia officer filled letters to his mother with comparisons of the North’s “war of subjugation against the South” to “England’s war upon the colonies.” He was confident that the Confederacy would win this “second War for American Independence” because “Tyranny cannot prosper in the nineteenth century” against “a people fighting for their liberties.” An enlisted man in a Texas cavalry regiment told his sister in 1861 that just as their forefathers had rebelled against King George to establish “Liberty and freedom in this western world … so we dissolved our alliance with this oppressive foe and are now enlisted in ‘The Holy Cause of Liberty and Independence again.” An Alabama corporal who had just been captured at Gettysburg nevertheless expressed confidence that, fighting for “the same principles which fired the hearts of our ancestors in the revolutionary struggle,” the South would ultimately win the war. As Georgia captain in the Army of Northern Virginia learned of the fall of Vicksburg, he wrote to his wife, “let us not despair… we must put fourth even greater energy - resolve more fully to conquer or die. Our forefathers were whipped in nearly every battle and lost their capital & yet after seven years of trials and hardships achieved their independence.” A farmer’s son in the 1st North Carolina Infantry wrote, “instead of indulging in feelings of despondency, let us compare our situation and cause to those of our illustrious ancestors who achieved the liberties we have ever enjoyed and for which we are now contending.” Over and over in Confederate letters, one finds sentences like these: “it is better to spend our all in defending our country than to be subjugated and have it taken away from us.” “It is better to die than be subjugated, and I for one am ready and willing to fight until the bitter end.” “we had all better go the same way [as those who had died] than suffer the wretches who are trying to enslave us, to accomplish their ends. I prefer death to Yankee rule.” Defense of homeland is one of the most powerful combat motivations. Many northern soldiers conceded this truth. They “fight like Devils in tophet,” an Illinois sergeant wrote of the Confederates in 1862, because they "are fighting to keep an enemy out of their own neighborhood and protect their property … not that I can really concede their cause just but, right or wrong, if we thought or believed we was right, it would be the same to us.” Two years later an officer, also from Illinois, made this increasingly common point in a letter to his wife: “They are fighting from different motives than us. We are fighting for the Union…a high and noble sentiment, but after all a sentiment. They are fighting for independence and are animated by passion and hatred against invaders…it makes no difference whether they are just, or not. You can get up an amount of righteous enthusiasm that nothing we have can ever excite, something that our motives just will not compare with.” “we are fighting for matters real and tangible…our property and our homes,” wrote a Texas private in 1864, “they for matters abstract and intangible. It is only that there are so many more of them that they slowly advance.” A Tennessee Lieutenant insisted that “The Yankees are sacrificing their lives in droves for nothing; we ours for home, country, and all that is dear and sacred…everyone seems to know that his life, liberty, and loved ones are at stake, hence we must never be whipped.” A young North Carolina soldier agreed that, “when a southron’s home is threatened, the spirit of resistance is irrepressable,” and one of the the Confederacy’s numerous gentleman privates - men who enlisted in the ranks despite their wealth and social status - a thirty two year old virginia planter, declared two weeks before he was killed at Malvern Hill that to drive the “insolent invader…from the soil polluted by their occupying presence…had something of the glorious in it, that appeals to other feelings than those of patriotism and duty - to those of freedom.” Arthur fremantle, a british officer touring America during the war, wrote an entire book about his deep sympathies for the south, wherein he commented: "At the outbreak of the American war, in common with many of my countrymen, I felt very indifferent as to which side might win; but if I had any bias, my sympathies were rather in favor of the North, on account of the dislike which an Englishman naturally feels at the idea of slavery. But soon a sentiment of great admiration for the gallantry and determination of the Southerners, together with the unhappy contrast afforded by the foolish bullying conduct of the Northerners, caused a complete revulsion in my feelings...I have not attempted to conceal any of the peculiarities or defects of the Southern people. Many persons will doubtless highly disapprove of some of their customs and habits in the wilder portion of the country; but I think no generous man, whatever may be his political opinions, can do otherwise than admire the courage, energy, and patriotism of the whole population, and the skill of its leaders, in this struggle against great odds. And I am also of opinion that many will agree with me in thinking that a people in which all ranks and both sexes display a unanimity and a heroism which can never have been surpassed in the history of the world, is destined, sooner or later, to become a great and independent nation."

It's pretty cool looking at the 400-year evolution of the US soldier. Even the salute has evolved, nowadays (unlike back then) the proper salute insists on not exposing the palm.
