American Hippies

            People at this time starting wearing anti-war clothing and symbols such as peace signs. Some people called this the starting of the hippie era. There were many decorations on many peoples clothing like patches, drawings/designs, and fabrics were added on the clothing as well. When the soldiers came back who survived they liked to wear their uniforms sometimes to show what they have done for our country. Many men during the 60's and 70's had long beards or mustaches and men started growing out there hair very long, going back to the start of the hippie era, because there were so many people against the war people liked and wanted to spread the word of peace.
