Е. Исакевич, Yevgeny Isakevich - Бородино, Confession of Napoleon's soldier
Why did soldiers wear brightly- coloured uniforms during the Napoleonic Wars?
Is it that it was so you could tell friend from enemy in the hazy battlefield (caused by the gunpowder smoke from the muskets)?
Thanks.
Battles were fought on open plains, so there was no need to hide from an enemy with camouflage as today. Colorful uniforms may have helped distinguish friend from foe, but I suspect it was more of an ego-enhancing thing: "Look how great Pierre looks in his fancy uniform. He must be proud to be a soldier."

I was curious, so I tracked down some interesting little tidbits. Gunpowder has been used as a seasoning (with horse meat!) in a pinch (and a big pinch it was!). This excerpt from Three Napoleonic Battles describes the scene.
Gunpowder is also the name of spicy seasonings that are used when grill cooking and are usually a blend of salt, pepper, and other (probably spicy) herbs.
Thanks for the fascinating facts! Horsemeat and gunpowder—now there's a meal for the ages. Those poor Napoleonic soldiers! If memory serves, they were eventually reduced to eating their shoes (more likely boots) as well. But it would be a fun post to write about the weirdest seasonings—I'm sure gunpowder's not the only one!
