I am working on a sort of uniform. Was a red bib front shirt worm by any units? Was there rank insignia on the sleeves? This is the shirt I have now. I don't have to be historically correct as long as I look good, but if I am actually close to a real uniform I would try to be a little more accurate. I also have dark blue pants with a gold stripe. Good deal at this site-

I am getting this together to go with a sword I have, something like this one-

What else should I have if this is like anything really worn by anyone? I would wear this at a dinner or other social type thing as I would wear the sword on one side and one C&B revolver on the other. Not good for match situations.
Thanks...
