    (response from Kevin Kiley) The enlisted men of the Royal Marine Artillery wore Royal Artillery uniforms in North America during the War of 1812. The officers wore the regulation Royal Marine uniform. The dark blue Royal Artillery uniform was authorized in 1811 and was also 'sanctioned' for officers in 1812. On 19 March 1814 the Royal Marine Artillery embarked at Portsmouth and was supplied with '4 blue jackets for sergeants, 4 blue jackets for drummers, 36 blue jackets for gunners; 36 pairs of half-gaiters, 4 caps for sergeants, 76 caps for gunners, 80 knapsacks; 120 pairs of grey trousers.'-The Royal Marine Artillery 1804-1923 by Edward Fraser and LG Carr-Laughton, page 301.
