I am sure you are wondering who this is. Well, it is my friend Rob Rowell, of the 27th (Inniskilling) of Foot, British Grenadiers. The Grenadiers were good enough to show up for this event, and Rob being one of them, we were on the opposite end of each others' musket barrels. That was a new and interesting feeling. It's not the same when I shoot the French, because even if they are my friends they are always French (the bad guys). But Rob and I are always on the same side but here he is a bad guy.

Come to think of it, though, I was a milice when I met him and his lovely wife Sue, at Crown Point 2.5 years ago.
