The Evolution of the United States Army Uniform, released by LionHeart FilmWorks and Historical Wardrobe a couple of months ago is quickly going viral with well more than a million views. Thevideo tells the story of the military uniform all the way back into the 17th century once the first organized militias were formed that could later become the United States Army.
The movie was made by LionHeart FilmWorks and its sister firm Wardrobe. According to Kevin R. Hershberger, President and founder of the two companies, it was an ambitious project that no-one has ever tried before in this manner.
“This video is a joint effort by both teams and companies in our pursuit and passion to produce historical content with an almost obsessive level of historical accuracy and attention to detail,” says Hershberger. “We covered 400 years old, so that I think that is something to be proud of!”
The video is really the first in a string that LionHeart FilmWorks and Ancient Wardrobe are likely on the subject of historical U.S. army uniforms.
Hershberger feels that the movie might be particularly applicable this month because of Armed Forces Day on May 19th, which celebrates current members of the U.S. military, and Memorial Day on May 28th, which observes members of the U.S. military who have a peek at this site given their lives in service to the nation.
