Hi, welcome to my personal collection of Military Regalia. Im an enthusiastic collector, and I'm especially phoenatic about WW1 military Regalia. My names Sergeant Roger.
For you who don't know (shamefully) military regalia is the distinctive clothing worn and ornaments carried at formal occasions as an indication of status. Id like to show you my collection, from over the years
I have collected fourteen different orders of dress. The most important being the temperate ceremonial uniform, it is a dark blue tunic and trousers or overalls with a coloured peaked cap. The caps, piping, welts and stripes help us distinguish different units. You can differentiate the cavalry regiments by the colour of the collar.
I have also collected Frock coats something Senior officers sometimes wore.
The Temperate parade uniform or more commonly known as service dress was worn for most formal duties by all units. I have The Khaki jacket, shirt, tie and trousers. The service tunic was thick and made of wool and dyed in khaki inks imported from Germany. Rifle patches were sewn in to prevent wear from the rifle. All officers and other ranks wore the same style and colour of service dress and was completely free, except officers had to purchase the caps, belts and shoes.
here are two of my personal studies of uniforms. Hope you like it.
