Uniforms - Fatigues: The US Infantry wore white waistcoats (vests) and fatigue caps when off the field. We do not need to purchase barracks tunic (jacket) like the British Regiments. That will save us about $30 or more. Uniforms - Half Gaiters: Gaiters are a type of protective clothing for a person's ankles and legs below the knee. Gaiters strap over the hiking boot and around the person's leg to provide protection from branches and thorns and to prevent mud, snow, etc. from entering the top of the boot. Coatee
