The growth of the United States Army Uniform, published by LionHeart FilmWorks and Historical Wardrobe a few months ago is quickly going viral with well over a million views. Thevideo tells the story of this army uniform all the way back to the 17th century when the first organized militias were formed that could later develop into the United States Army.
LionHeart FilmWorks and its sister company Historical Wardrobe created the film. Based on Kevin R. Hershberger, President and founder of the two companies, it was an ambitious project that nobody has tried before in this fashion.
“This movie is a joint effort by both companies and teams in our quest and passion to create historical content with an almost obsessive degree of historical accuracy and attention to detail,” says Hershberger. “We covered 400 years of history, so I feel that is something to be proud evolution of the us army uniform!”
It gives the viewer a fascinating glimpse of 23 distinct fashions of apparel — the uniforms, weapons, and accoutrements — which were worn with the U.S. military soldier as far back as the 1620s. The movie is actually the first in a string that LionHeart FilmWorks and Historical Wardrobe are likely on the subject of historical U.S. military uniforms.
Hershberger believes that the video may be especially relevant this month due to Armed Forces Day on May 19th, that observes current members of the U.S. army, and Memorial Day on May 28th, which observes members of the U.S. military who have given their lives in service to this country.
