    Does anyone here know what kind of officers had red jackets with gold buttons, and carried a sword?

    The British Army up until the 19th Century I believe.

    Yes, I thought so. Were any of them known to decapitate people?

    Not too sure, but I know they changed them at some point as they were too easy for the enemy and snipers to pick them out. Camouflage was in after that.
