    Indeed.... Brian, haven't these guys also showed up at Jacobite events as Loyalist (pro-Hanoverian) Highlanders?
    Here's another good unit:

    Yes. Sometimes at a re-enactment, you don't portray what you necessarily want to, but instead what you have to. Hard to have a battle without both sides being present. Anyone who has seen or participated in American Civil War re-enactments will know what I mean. If the South could have had the numerical superiority in actuality that it has at at many re-enactments, the war would have ended in 1861.

    That is true. I use to belong to a (now defunct) Confed' cavalry unit. Even out here in the Pacific NW we had events where some had to galvanize .... and we also had some who refused, no matter how desperate the need!

    I've heard it said everyone likes a rebel
