The M1872 Enlisted Dismounted/Foot Dress Coat for Infantry, Heavy Artillery, Ordnance,
Engineers and Hospital Stewards, is a Frock Coat. It is made using our quality 19 oz dark blue field service
wool with a natural corset jean full body lining. Longer skirt and different back trim style than the Mounted
services dress coat. This coat has belt loops in the back. The skirt is raw as per originals. It comes with Branch
of Service color trim. The Branch of Service trim is on the Collar, Cuffs, Back Flaps, Epaulets and the piping on
the edges.
Heavy Artillery - Red Trim.
Hospital Steward - Emerald Green Trim.
Engineers - .
Infantry - Sky Blue Trim.
Ordnance - Crimson (Dark Wine) Trim.
The 1872 Ordnance Dept Dress Coat (shown with optional
chevrons) has Crimson trim color. The 1872 Hospital Steward Dress Coat would
have Emerald Green trim color and the Hospital Steward half chevrons.
The M1873 Enlisted Dismounted/Foot Dress Coat for Hospital Stewards, Ordnance and Engineers.
In 1873, the US Army Uniform Board improved the look of the Dress coat for these three branches by changing the
piping to white from the branch of service color piping used in 1872 and adding it to other areas of the coat. This
greatly enhanced the look of these coats. Other than that the M1873 is the same basic design as the 1872 Foot style
Dress coat.
Ordnance Sergeant would have crimson trim
replacing the Emerald Green and the Ordnance Sergeant's chevrons in place of
the Hospital Steward half chevron.
Engineers would have Scarlet (red) trim color with the white
piping.
