Manual of Arms

I don't know how the D and C worked in the Revolutionary period but that looked pretty sloppy. Just saying.

[ponto]

@Lardman678 He's not quite the Brigade of Guards, is he?

[GovVance]

Well, that is obviously a flintlock musket, but the feller in this video is wearing ACW uniform (note the forage cap)

[ponto]

Spot on, Gov. I've got a flintlock, but the old cocked hat fell apart years ago. Plus, I like the cap and the vest.

[GovVance]

That is all good. Whatever works for you...

[Finchy000]

my god, look at those tactics, that right there is some serious solder skills

[cigarboxguitar16]

its close to von steubons M-A but not exact good job though, im with col seth warners regiment in vermont "green mt boys"

[entmage]

isn't that a civil war uniform?

[ponto]

It's a Civil War cap and waistcoat, entmage. His Rev War regimentals are too small - and hot.

That was interesting. Could you tell me what the general/leutenant (or whoever) would say... or the names of the positions is what I'm going for.

[entmage]

long delay on this one. I think: -shoulder arms -order arms -shoulder arms -present arms (thing before going down is poise arms) -charge your bayonet (without fixing bayonet) -shoulder arms -order arms -rest and ease (never seen it done like that) now you can go out and start an army
