The Colonel is wearing a feather to assert his dominance. And because he is wearing a 'bocskai' cap. Similar caps were worn by nobility and soldiers back in the 16-18th century, usually with a hawk or an eagle feather and late 19th/early 20th century Hungarian clothing, especially military clothing tended to incorporate old elements. It should be noted that the feather was disappearing by around 1940.

Bright uniforms were contributing factor. French got spotted earlier than Germans or Brits who already wore toned down colors, regardless did they move in massed formation or as skirmish line.

Erwin Rommel wrote about how their clothing made them excessively east to spot far off, once giving away a while formation, moving in a column through tall grass. He and the few men with him would shoot at the French, the frogs would take cover, then when Rommel and his men held their fire the French would just clump up again and keep moving.

The French were not prepared to fight a modern war.
