No! George Washington was not a red coat he was a blue coat! Read some biographies about him and you'll see. Are you an Idiot?
General George Washington To be more specific: The AMERICANS won the battle of Yorktown which was fought over with the British. The American's LEADER was general George Washington.
The Blue Coats were the Patriots and the Red Coats were the Loyalists/Regulars
"Yes, Burlington Coat Factory has all kinds of different coats you can buy both online and in person. They definitely have coats that are the blue color."
The Patriots in the American Revolution. They wore blue coats.
The Continental Army actually had a number of different uniforms it used before going with the famous blue uniforms as the standard. In the early war, the Army wore Brown or "nutmeg" coats with facings of different colors to differentiate regiments from the different states. In 1777, as a gift to the young nation, the French sent thousands of blue coats with red facings. They were referred to as "lottery coats" since there were not enough coats for every soldier and a lottery was drawn to determine which units received uniforms. In 1779, George Washington issued uniform orders for the entire Continental Army making the blue uniforms official with facings of red to signify units from the Mid-Atlantlic States, white facings for New England, and buff facings for the Southern States. In 1781, all uniforms were blue with red facings. So to answer your question, the Continental Army wore blue clothing because blue was the color of the uniforms the French gave us. To this day, the U.S. Army wears blue dress uniforms ... all because of the French!
