No, generally the patriots were farmers, blacksmiths, carpenters, or other just regular guys. They were not very well funded and could not afford proper military formalities. They would often be at home sleeping with their families and be woken in the middle of the night to run out in fight nearby their homes. They would put on whatever their regular clothes were and take off. Yet after the Battle of Saratoga, France started funding America, and got uniforms along with other supplies. A Continental soldier's attire included a cocked hat, a waist coat and regiment coat, breeches, long stockings, and leather shoes. Two cross-belts strapped over his shoulders, one used for a cartridge box, and one to hold a bayonet in place on either side of his hips. A white cotton or linen waist coat was under the soldier's overcoat. These overcoats were either blue or brown (depending on which state a soldier belonged to).
Unlike their British opponents, for the most part the patriots fought wearing their everyday clothing. Among the more wealthy of militia companies, some form of military uniform was worn. Following the famous Battle of Bunker Hill, a small number of the general population of troops began to wear uniforms, as well.
No, George Washington did not wear school uniforms. School uniforms were not common during his time, and his education as a young man did not require a specific uniform.
United States soldiers wear diffrent stuff to each war
In the time of the revolution brides followed the customs of their culture and family. Brides didn't wear white until the 1860's and Queen Victoria set the style for white . Dresses were often recycled for the weddings of the 1770's and used by brides within the family. Wedding bouquets were not used until the 1860's. Weddings were a civil contract in the 1700's and not religious.
