As a confederate c.w. historical impressionist our go to arm was the 1842 smooth bore musket..only reason it was replaced was the quantity in the south once the state military stores ran out as the war rolled on. BTW nice informative video.

My Dad was Curator of West Point Museum before President Eisenhower told HST he found the CURATORS CURATOR- dad worked with his office next to HST’s. We had a wonderful life growing up. Dad was historian, Wrote Patton & His Pistols while at WP. He restored Historical Buildings, Battlefields and his final was Jesse’s James Farm & Home. I have all his records, journals he kept daily as he wrote conversations with HST & so many dignitaries. Have a huge collection that needs to be put back in History. I loved WP, marched to John Phillips Souza for years after moving from WP, loved watching marching bands and the music. What a life. Have so many history to share.

Loved this video just wanted to mention that a lot patriotic people boycotted British imports during the revolution and home cloth spinning became more widespread.
@kellicoffman8440Ай бұрын
One aspect of home cloth making in the 18th century was it’s connection to the boycott of taxed British imports patriotic women made their own or did without

Linen was also made from hemp. I know it’s easy to say & not think about what was said, but the 18th century definition defines linen as being from flax & hemp.

Thank you for pointing out that the militia drilled and knew how to drill prior to the childish story about von Steuben at Valley Forge that is beaten to death. I know this video shows British regulars performing the drill - but could your militia group show Timothy Pickering's drill as well.

Our ancesters never let anything go to waist. Were so waistful in our world today. All of the fecies and urin were thrown into the garden for furtalizer. We are no different than animals who go to the bathroom on the ground but we found it grose to deal with so we created all these dumb things. For granted modern sanitation is abosutly needed especially if your doing these types of things but even God came up with a purpose for everything we think its garbage or waist and we just let it sot outside. If we just figured out how to work with the environment thats what they had outhouses for you could scoup that up and mix it with thr decomposing vegitation and make compost with it. We should all be finding anchent machanics they used in the past to help with modern solutions to our problems. People even baithed back then. They took bird baths to conserve water because they had to haul their own.

Actually I worked in kitchens a long time, my family is full of chefs/cooks. That cut of meat and chuck eye steak are some of my favorites. You want good flavor in meat, get it next to the bone. Bonus feature, stewing that cut wil make excellent broth; becuase of the morrow.

You know it’s crazy how strong genetics are. I come from the Randolph family, William Henry’s. Nearly all my family members on that side have died from strokes. Even my brother had a stroke at 52 and passed away. Peyton died from a stroke at 54 and if I went through my genealogy I’m sure it would be quite a long list in 400 years.

100,000 imported. Men fought with their own militia guns and with captured besses, by a hundred thousand of these imported. Yet it’s unlikely more than thirty thousand colonials ever fought for the American side. Guns got busted and lost, but that’s atleast three Charlies for every American soldier Another point to look at, is the colonies population was about two million. Roughly six hundred thousand men between 16 and 50. No society of the time could mobilize a tenth of its potential fighting force. And according to Franklin 1/3 of the colonist were Tory and 1/3 didn’t care. So the max potential was two hundred thousand fighting men, and the realistic number about twenty thousand So the French sent over five muskets for every new US army man at arms
