The color of uniforms during World War 2 depended upon the military branch and the types of uniforms used in battle, for dress and the season. For instance: The Naval uniforms had white winter uniforms and black for winter. Their working clothes were dungarees (denim colored) and the officers wore khaki clothing. The Army had a dark green uniform for their dress uniform and olive drab or khaki clothing for work or battle dress. They also used camouflaged fabric for the infantry but they hated it in Europe because they were often mistaken for being a German. So they refused to use them. The Marines had dark blue dress uniforms. There clothing was similar to the Army. The Sea Bees wore khaki and green. The Coast Guard wore the same colors as the Navy. The US Air Force had not been formed yet. The fliers were part of the Navy and Army. They wore the colors of their branches. Women's uniforms were similar colored but of course they had skirts and slacks. The Nursing Uniforms were mostly white for their working outfits but the dress uniforms were either green or dark blue according to the branch the women served.
During World war 2 the British Airforce went through drastic changes but its name stayed the same and is still the same today, earlier the airforce was an army organization, lending blue uniforms to the Russians in their revolution the airforce had green, when the revolution finished the uniforms were sent back and so the airforce started to produce and wear blue uniforms, The name Was the R.A.F the Royal Air Force.AnswerEngland has never had an air force.
Union uniforms were blue; Confederate uniforms were gray.
While they standardized on blue toward the end of the war, in the early years, it varied greatly. Many units designed rather fancy uniforms with many colors, some used green in an early version of camoflauge.
The group who wore the gray uniforms were the Confederates from the south. The Union soldiers of the north wore the blue uniforms.
The Union Army always wore blue uniforms, while the Confederate Army always wore gray uniforms. The Confederate Army, however, were not as wealthy as the Union Army, and therefore couldn't always afford uniforms for all their soldiers. Many Confederates wore their own clothes during combat.
Depends on which army, and which uniform you have in mind. The current US Army Class A uniforms are blue, with the blouse being a dark blue, and the trousers being much lighter, while officers wear a gold stripe down the sides of the trousers. The ACU (Army Combat Uniform) is various shades of green, tan, and grey.
Confederate uniforms were grey. The Union Army wore dark blue.
The Union armys uniforms were blue.
The majority of the soldiers wore dark blue jackets with light blue pants. US Sharpshooters wore green uniforms.

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!
Initially, the Continental Army (as the colonial troops were called) did not have uniforms, so many of them fought in whatever they had. This ranged from everyday clothes, hunting gear, to old British uniforms they had around. Later on, Continental troops got blue uniforms.
The only soldiers in the American Civil War who wore green uniforms that I know of were Berdan's Sharpshooters. They were a regiment of snipers in the Union Army, and presumably green was intended to make them less conspicuous than blue.
At the beginning of the US Civil War, some of the the Confederate army uniforms were a butternut color. Grey was introduced as soon as these color uniforms could be produced. The US army already had blue uniforms and remained with that color.
you have to find the green switch by going to the reverse world P.S that's where you get the blue switch too
The main color of the US Army Infantry is blue.
