Actually, the majority of British soldiers in South Africa darkened their gleaming white helmets with tea or coffee-the clean, white ones were spotted too easily by the enemy.Great figure!Is Rorke's drift coming next?

Post by: Malone on April 04, 2011, 21:56:07: Thanks for the comments.
The Zulu War marked the end of the redcoat uniform.
Troops stationed in South Africa were almost the last to change uniform.
The Victorian mentality, strategies, colors, these things can not be seen from a modern perspective. ::)
