Re: Strelets Serbs in winter uniform, question ?

Since their wearing capotes/great coats, most likely Khaki/Mustard or Horizon Blue/light blue to light Grey different units may have been dressed differently, underneath they may be wearing British uniforms (breeches and jackets) but these of course are hardly visible, equipment should be leather brown...

What dates these is the helmets mostly so late war for Serbs, rifles appear to be Lebels but were kept for the French Metropolitan Units, the officers cap looks more French should be more like the infantry cap but with a very small downward pointing peak, not all officers wore them... The Traditional shoes are quite simple to make so could have been produced by the troops themselves, which wouldn't make them out of place...
