Evolution Of The French Uniform WW1
Просмотров 84 тыс.Год назад
With the beginning of modern warfare, the French army had to adapt quickly which led to each year almost being a whole new look for the French Poilu. This video gives a quick look to the viewer of an example of what each soldier would have worn during the years of the Great War. A Horizon Blue Media Video Music by Auri Forda special thanks to those who came out to make this video possible and t...
why they go back to blue in 1917?
More than happy to see the glorious 151st infantry regiment. I actually command that beautiful regiment ! Don't hesitate to contact me
Is the larger mess kit for the squad?
Immaculate Comfort Incredible History Beautiful Art The blueberry obsession is pretty unforgivable Just accept Brown Drab Superiority
where do you find this stuff im trying to make a kit
Where can you buy ww1 French items. I’m having a hard time finding website for my outfit.
There is nothing so sad as seeing young men going to war.
Question, where did you get your uniform reproductions?
where did you get your uniforms?
Where are you all from, guys? Having you in, say, Vimy, Souchez-en-Artois, or on any other major 1st WW site would be a boon.
amazing showcase of uniform, I struggled to find a good showcase of every WW1 french uniform and this one is very well made.
Other ROBLOX players enjoy WW1 too?!
@@whyamitalkingtothisguy I enjoy so much that I developp
Magnifique présentation de nos soldats ❤ j'aimerais bien avoir un uniforme français de 1916 mais ca vaut extrêmement cher en tous cas merci pour cette video ca nous fait honneur vive la France 🇨🇵🫡

Excellent👍👍
do they actually wear coat during summer😂
Yes actually! The coat is actually a lighter wool than most other greatcoats, and the French soldier would wear it throughout the year, and it would also double as their blanket
After a few months with the dark blue jacket and red pants, they were like Yeaa, no, we need to change this shit, fast!
Goodbye blue tunic with brass buttons and red trousers… goodbye
french uniform from all eras is just immaculate in my opinion
Does the 1917 soldier carry a coupe coupe?
If they happen to be a Senegalese Tiralleur, yes
@@RandomFurry07 but he's not in this case. As far as I know, it wasnt used by metropolitan regiments
It’s a French issued Billhook or “Serpe”, 12 were issued per company
@@horizonbluemedia thank you!
Best representation I've seen of the French uniform's evolution in WW1. I don't think I've seen a realistic representation of the 1915 mish-mash anywhere, but this one is accurate right down to the corduroy pants because there wasn't enough horizon blue production yet. 1916 with the cover on the helmet but not the following years as the covers were dropped as they increased the risk of infection in case of head wounds. The list goes on. Bon boulot les gars!!! 👍
Merci!
anyone know the song?, the description only mentions the artist
Autumn mist - auri fardo
Certainly would love to see more.
The Frenxh are rude because they still remenber WW-I.
This is actually the WW1 French reenactment group, I am planning on falling in one day. I have even been brushing up on my high school, so I really get authentic. Also love the video as well.
What's that blanket round his neck in 1917?
It is his “Toile de tente” or his shelter half worn in the assault order
Imagine being at the first battle of the Marne and you effectively have an American civil War load out.
Alors les uniformes sont très beaux. Mais la seule question que je me pose est, où avez-vous acheté ou trouvé les uniformes que vous portiez lors de votre vidéo?
The uniforms are all custom made by tailors within our re-enacting groups!
They always had good boots back then

Even in 1914, overtrousers, typically horizon blue, were often worn over the madder red trousers to make the uniform less conspicuous. The horizon blue cap cover worn by the 1914 guy is the beginning of common sense.
Marvelous video! I am a WW2 re-enactor with over 30 years in the hobby. I have often wanted to re-enact The Great War. Sadly it isn't very popular here in the US due to our limited involvement in it. I love the early war uniforms of the French especially Zouave and Chasseurs. I know we ( USA ) adopted and bought many uniforms from France during the US Civil War and those have always been my favorite! BTW, my Grandfather and Great Uncle both fought in WW1 in France for the US. They loved the French people.
The uniform it's beautiful although must recognized the fact that it lacks camouflage which means that a soldier out of a fortified position is easy target !!!
If I can answer your question, why the French uniform was horizon blue, the staff wanted another uniform because seeing the red and blue uniform was too old and outdated. However, many were against the idea of changing this uniform because it was too symbolic (it is the color of France). Thus in 1914 it was finally decided to make a uniform where the blue of the top was mixed with the red of the bottom to make a color a little dark purplish red. However the red dye was exported from Germany and the rest you know...that's why the uniform is blue!!
As a European historian, I must tell you how proud I am of you and your team. This was professional and well planned. Excellent work. Thank you so very much for sharing your thoughts and music. ❤
Really well made. Great to see other countries WW1 uniforms.
The Armée d'Orient had a kaki uniform, like the Armée d'Afrique, way before it became the standard in Metropolitan troops.
my god, the 1914 uniform is really something else. the first world war was really the first modern war in so many ways... I don't think that even ceremonial uniforms are that colourful nowadays, not unless we're talking about the president's honour guard of cuirassiers.
Images de qualité exceptionnelle. Ces Hommes aimaient leur pays , pas comme beaucoup de nos contemporains. Pensées et respect à eux
The horizon blue and the Adrian helmet were adopted so quickly in 1915 because, even if they didn't adopt khaki or grey uniforms as other countries, the French did a lot of work on new uniforms in the years before the war, and some months before the start many things were on the verge of being ready waiting for a political ''yes''. They also created a camouflage (wich is a French word) very early in the war to help in the concealment of artillery and machine guns positions and also for the basic soldier.
There were experiments before the war with "reseda green" uniforms for the French army but they came to nothing.
@@stevekaczynski3793 Before WWI France, that may be ironic for some, was one of the countries that put more thougth and work on camouflage and new uniforms. The Reseda was ready but political and other things came in his way. So in late 1914 they have a lot of experience and designs ready, the problem was that the industry was now not ready for certain desings because of the mobilization and the lack of certain dyes, the horizon blue was the best they could, and ''Moutarde'' (mustad color) for the colonial troops, but the uniform was more modern and the Adrian was the first mass produced modern helmet. In a few months the french soldiers get one of the biggest change in gear of the war.
I was just telling my wife about this particular bit of history a while back. Shared! =^[.]^=
Fantastic job. Best wishes from la Pologne!
¡Gran trabajo! Felicitaciones.👏
This war is going to get expensive, we need to cut costs. Lets get rid of the bright colors and go with cheaper dull colors
Fantastic video. The quality is amazing. Great insight to the uniform of the solider . Cheers
Very Well Done! I am Very Glad to See the Regiment that Mark Hilliard and myself started at Mt. St. Mary’s in northern Maryland in 1978 is going Stronger than Ever!!!!! On Les Aura!!! Vive La France!!!!!🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
Interestingly, the Imperial Japanese Army adopted the pattern 1937 French uniform as standard through WW2, but with their own helmet.
The thumbnail alone placed you....I know that building behind you! I was there recently! Not sure why I'm so giddy over it but here we are.
Very well done indeed.
