Holy hell, that look like you're going to have hell of a time buttoning your trouser up.

The uniform is nice and I particularly like the overalls.

But I can't get over that goddamn volume.
Does your hair even go flat?
Crawling back to you,
Ever thought of calling when you've had a few? 'cause I always do.

(fear it might be too tight around my ankle)

From a purely practical point of view, it keeps shit (in every sense of the word) to get up your legs.
Probably one of the very few old-timers here who hasn't been a regimental leader.

The trick is too only button off the first and last few. It's just like small gaiters then. Not that you Yanks know anything about gaiters  ;)

No.

Technically, yes, but it's not supposed to be that tight. The buttons will be repositioned tomorrow, giving me a bit more space. Should be good. After all, none of these thing were factory-produced, so small differences are excusable.

The buttons are bone, if anyone wonders.

Man im glad Civil war Uniforms are so easy. Hell I bitch my head of buttoning the 9 buttons on my frock coat.
Of course, I also think lines should be able to move in double rank without having emotional breakdowns.

You people and your buttons.

Almost like you don't have to tie everything together.

A really nice report. Sadly you can see the Commander of the Prussian brigade, when Poniatowski falls, right behind him.  :-\
