Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Soldier of the 3rd West India Regiment, 1863. Coloured lithograph by M. & N. Hanhart, after J. Brandard, published 1863. Unlike most colonial units, the West India Regiment was an integral part of the British Regular Army. During the 1850s it adopted a uniform modelled on that of the French Zouaves. This included a red fez wound about by a white turban, a red sleeveless jacket with yellow braiding worn over a long-sleeved white shirt, and dark blue baggy breeches. The 3rd West India Regiment was disbanded in 1870. National Army Museum Collection, London:
