The French 1755 uniform

Pic I did of the uniforms of the first wave of French troops to New France. If I remember correctly their uniforms were made by the Ministry of Marine and lacked collars that was the current regulation.

Grenadier of the French Guyenne regiment (left) and a corporal from the Béarn regiment (right), circa 1756 by Eugene Leliepvre:
