This is the social media channel for video content from the recreated HM 40th Regiment of Foot, light infantry company. For more information on us, please find us on facebook or instagram or email us at [email protected]
One of our goals over the year+ of the covid-19 pandemic was to begin to create useful and informative videos of what we do.
Coming up, we'll have videos on period musket cleaning, the 1764 manual of arms, the light infantry exercises, training and effectiveness of musketry, uniform details, camp cooking and cleaning, duties of the members of the company (including followers), wigwam making, and a few other special topics as we go.
Let us know what you think and what else you might like to see us do.
