As far as what uniforms were worn on "D"Day, the answer is not complete and there are several errors; First of all, the boots worn by the U.S. Army were brown, not black. They came in three styles, Service boots with leggings, two buckle boots and the Airborne Jump boots. Further, the uniforms were a mixture of the 1941 uniform and the 1943 uniform, the difference being the jacket. The paratroopers had their own unique uniform consisting of a jacket with "Rigger" pouches, some reenforced, some as issued. The paratrooper helmet was unique also as it had a liner connected to the helmet with special webbing so the helmet and liner would not separate during the jump.

Did British soldiers wear capes in world war 1?

Yes, British soldiers did wear capes during World War I, particularly in colder weather. These capes were often part of their greatcoats or issued as separate items for additional warmth and protection against the elements. However, the use of capes was not universal, and many soldiers primarily relied on standard uniforms and greatcoats. The practicality of capes in trench warfare made them less common as the war progressed.
