The Pennsylvania Company has "Class A" and "Class B" Uniform guidelines. Simply put, Class A is our dress/undress uniform, the main difference from Class B being the regimental goat in green wool, faced green designed by Major Rogers for his units. Our Class B interpretation is a field uniform, more suited to the rigors of campaigning.
