'50 Civil War Uniforms in 10 Minutes' - The Evolution of Blue & Grey

Our Movie “The Red Badge of Courage” on Kickstarter!
Just CLICK!
A chronological presentation of some of the more unique and important uniforms to represent the evolution of the American Civil War “Blue and Grey” from just before the spark of the war in 1861 to Union victory and occupation in 1865.

This project is meant to honor men from both the north and the south -- now together forever in eternity — who served their countries, their states and their comrades while wearing these uniforms, weapons, and accouterments — during some of the most brutal battles Americans have ever faced. Shot in 4K and featuring nine of the best Living Historians in the country.

As accurately as we possibly could, and one uniform at a time.… telling the story of the 2.75 Million soldiers who once wore these sacks coats, shell jackets and kepis with pride — each soldier earning a debt we should all be duty-bound to continue to honor.

The soldier struggling to find comfort while wearing his heavy pack is probably the most relateable thing to any soldier no matter what time period.

the little movements they do make this seem like a character selection screen for a fighting game or something

[janupczak]

What an incredible presentation. The music, the lighting, even the expression on their faces was very sobering, somber, yet dignified. Just an excellent and educational presentation! Thank you.

[Cardinal]

Maybe I missed it, but some people really need credit for finding the proper materials and hand making the uniforms and equipment. This is the result of serious research and some really fine work. Best fashion show I've seen in a while : ) thank you.

This dude needs more subscribers his videos are great

[Freawulf]

Guy's cool depiction of a bushwhacker actually features a shirt in the style worn by Bloody Bill Anderson... ;)

I love how you made the addition of the VMI cadet for the 157th Battle of New Market anniversary

[alanparadis]

That video is absolutely incredible... seriously felt that to the core... the uniforms, and the actors showed them so realistic, outstanding!

[raccoonlittlebear]

Very well done, with dignity & authenticity! The men who modelled the uniforms brought honor to the displays as well. Cheers!

8:18 I will never get over how amazing the Iron Brigade looked.

Excellent presentation which I also found very moving. Thanks from London UK.

Damn, these dudes aren’t ready to break character til’ the dvd commentary. They are head to tippy toe authentic; if I didn’t know any better, I would think they were stuffed in a time machine and paid to be in this video. Great music and production value as well. 🔥🔥

[donjones]

Your choice of accompanying music for this fabulous live reference matches perfectly.
Congratulations on your splendid visual achievement.
I sincerely hope this won’t be your last.

A very solemn display of authenic Civil War uniforms. I commend the filmmakers for the honorable manner in which this was down🤔😔

In 1861, my Great Grandfather, who served in the 21st New York Volunteer Infantry, went to war in a cadet grey militia uniform. I would like to see that uniform represented.

[hpblack]

Outstanding presentation and 10 minutes of reflection. Thanks to all who worked on this video.

[ArizonaAirspace]

Can’t imagine how stifling those wool uniforms must have been in the Summer time with suffocating humidity of Southern states.

Just went to Gettysburg with our daughter's class trip. Wife has been doing genealogy and found that she had a relative from the 13th Penn. Bucktails. Glad to see them represented. His name is on the Penn monument there although misspelled.

An absolute fantastic production! With captivating music and immensely historically authentic uniforms, you are performing a great service posting these videos! Thank you so much - to the Director behind “Wicked Spring, ” and the Film Production company behind so many more wonderful historical films - for continuing to bring Civil War history to life.
