ASP PRESENTS:
The Spanish-American War, Uniforms and Equipment of the US Army. The US Army had many changes in their uniforms during the Spanish-American War. The Army evolved from using different types of materials in their uniforms and took ideas from other countries to fight in the tropical theater. The Army then evolved again into adopting the Olive Drab (OD) to fight during World War 1.

Special thanks to Arty for presenting his display of the Uniforms and Equipment of the US Army during the Spanish-American War.
