Grenadier Arrington is reviewed by the captain on parade.

For the Royal Sussex Society's 35th Regiment of Foot, a living history reenactment group, this video is intended to be used as a training tool for learning the British Army Manual Exercise. Covered within are the particulars of Revolutionary War musketry, movements, and a few other goodies.

  • How on Earth did we lose? lol. Loved every minute of your video.

  • @planetrockford Thank you!

  • indeed ! that IS a bess, very -very well seasoned and having seen service in both 200th and 225th anniversaries of the revolution. I have seen it in person, I believe it has been as far south as Charleston and as far north as Novascotia during it's service!

  • @1CommissarStrelnikov Its owner, whom I believe you also are familiar with, has likewise been as far South as Charleston and as far North as Nova Scotia! It's a Brown Bess that has a lot of character and a lot of mileage. The enemies of the 35th Regiment, however, seldom travel so much when they face us on the field. Six feet underground and no farther.

  • is it you Mr Rock?

  • @MrSchweden Yes, Schubert! You are quite correct, my mistake.

  • @RoyalSussexSociety

    Just a little minor correction, Marche Militaire was written by Schubery not Strauss :p

  • @CrownRoyal1945 The first song is "Marche Militaire" by Strauss. The second is "Sussex By the Sea" (for the Royal Sussex Society). I've no idea what the last tune is.

  • What's that song?!?!?!?!?!?

  • @universalcarrier Thanks for the compliment. The feather is the Roussillon Plume, an old regimental tradition we do for the Royal Sussex Regimental Association in the UK.
