The story of the Army unfolds through historical uniforms & other artifacts

-

 



The Army’s evolution of uniforms goes beyond just the colors and material. Just as weapons and vehicles modernized to meet a Soldier’s needs in battle, so too did the uniforms. For the 250th anniversary, Command and General Staff College Department of Military History professors, along with the Frontier Army Museum on Fort Leavenworth, curated several display cases within the Lewis and Clark Center. Dr. Richard Faulkner, CGSC DMH professor, discusses how Army uniforms are key storytelling pieces of the Army’s history.
