To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Gray, luff, or any neutral tint, presents us with the best requisites for a uniform.
But the second aspect under which color can be viewed in relation to uniforms, is that in which it presents itself as a mark for an enemy's aim. The least possible thought upon the subject will convince us that all brilliant colors, red, orange, white, are, from their high reflective powers, visible at great distances, and consequently a fair mark for sharp- shooters. Therefore pickets, guards, and skirmishers
...should wear clothing of a more sober and neutral tint. Statistics declare that for every 12 men in red who are struck in an engagement, there are only 7 in green, and 5 in gray, thus showing the decided advan- tage of this last color over all others in point of im- munity. These simple facts should be allowed to have more weight than they do in the uniforming of volun- teer regiments, and surely, if color can in some degree prevent liability to bullet-wounds, and thus diminish the ratio of an -army's mortality, hygiene does not transcend its province by calling attention to the fact.
