American Revolution Research

Hi all.

I am having trouble finding good sources for uniforms and equipment of the american revolution. My main problem is did they wear backpacks during combat? Some sources show them wearing them, some show them without.

Long story short; post sources about the american revolution here.

Some sources which I am already using:

Theres a chap on the forums called DukeofWellington he will find out everything you need to know to the extent you tear your eyes out.

Hope that helps :wink:
 
Wellington and I are the Revo War historians here :razz:

As far as I know, centre companies had their knapsacks on during battle. Flank companies, however, rarely did. Light Infantry needed mobility, while grenadiers couldn't get into melee properly with the heavy equipment.

Source: common sense and countless hours of looking at pictures, paintings and other sh*ts.

Uniform-wise, you can look up on this site: http://www.fifedrum.org/crfd/drums.htm for regimental laces, facing colours and flags. However, it's not 100% accurate. Facing colours are fine, though.

And regarding battles and regiments active in North America, check this: http://www.britishbattles.com/

If ye need a hand, PM me or Wellington. We'll give ye a hand with that. XP

Google is an amazing thing, and if not, try the library, amazing things these are.
 
Hold on? Why are you being rude. No where in that was I referring to any of your post, other than the "No reply". I was talking to BetaKnight.

I do not know what has gotten into you, but you have become very rude. You need to straighten up, or noone on the forums will want to talk/be friends with you..  :roll:

Ever heard "If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything". Well how about abide by that..

(And yes, I took what you said offensively).
