About British Redcoats

Between the 1700s and 1900s, the British army sported crimson hued uniforms, earning them the name of "Redcoats" due to their vividly colored uniforms. Having been dispatched by England to wage a war on the 13 colonies that would become the United States, their uniforms may have worked against them, making them a visible target in the woody, colonial battlegrounds. The defeat of the British led to the official Declaration of Independence on the part of the colonies and the birth of the United States of America
