 Their uniforms were worn with less regulation, sometimes mixed with their native dress.In 1870, Captain Bourke of the 3rd cavalry described Apache scouts in Arizona as "almost naked, their only clothing being a muslin loin-cloth, a pair of point toed moccasins and a hat of hawk feather".In 1876 a description of Crow Scouts reads that they wore, "an old black army hat with top cut out and sides bound round with feathers, fur and scarlet cloth".
