Well, I'm using historical army facts
Mind giving me the link to the site you're getting the info from?
My sites I'm looking support my links... I really, truly and honestly, thought the 2nd New York wore a blue coat with red facings, yellow breeches and waist coast, and white gaiters. Quite possible that they switched uniforms after the reforms of the army.Well, Hinkel. I'm sorry for doubting you. I've been doing some serious research and it seems that the 2nd New York did indeed where
brown coats with
blue facings, white breeches and waistcoat, and or black breeches and white waistcoat. However, I saw some pictures of 2nd New York Infantry also wearing
blue coat with a
beige/orange facings, white, black or
beige/orange breeches, and a white waist coat. I don't know, if that's true. But, I'm seeing all different styles for 2nd New York Infantry.
Supporting your Sources...
Also supporting your image...
From my sources...
2nd to Left, is a 2nd New York Infantryman...
Another 2nd New Yorker...
Lastly, another 2nd New Yorker...
I find this weird. Because so many sources support what you said with the Brown Coat, etc... But, then so many sources support what I said originally.
