Ft. Loudoun, TN, Demere Days 2007 - musket firing #1

[JagerFrostTroll]

I want to see 3 lines of 20 men fire by rank. First line, 2nd then 3rd. That looks badass, this is no good.

@austinferree12

yeah, William Jack*-he's supposed to represent a South Carolina provincial regiment-different from the redcoats (of the Independent company of South Carolina-who were regulars). both are, curiously, from the same period (1750's-early 1760's).

*I know the guy from correspondence with him.

lol i love the white socks

[Albukhshi]

they're not socks-they're spatterdashes- they're more like leggings than socks.

[billboi92]

oh ok , thanks!

[Albukhshi]

you're welcome.

[MajBlood]

@Albukhshi Do you know where I can get a red coat suit like this? I want to put it on and then annex my friends house.

[Albukhshi]

@MajBlood

I know you can order the broadcloth for it, but not necessarily it. try the discriminating general (militaryheritage)-they might sell uniforms proper. though I imagine it will cost you a lot to order one.

the real people you need to get a hold of are the reenactors of the South Carolina independent companies (the fellows in the vid)-they might know, since they do the reenacting.

I only do the documenting and research for a website..

@Albukhshi what a great word, spatterdashes :P

[JohnnyH1982]

It would have been much better if they had shot live rounds into a hickory tree.
