REBELS AND REDCOATS-War in the colonies
Rebels in Redcoats
1st Connecticut Regiment on the marchThe first Connecticut Regiment was one of the few American units to wear red coats which must have been confusing. One of the things I like about painting the Continental Army is the variety of colour schemes to choose from. My first none militia unit I painted was ironically in red. Usually the drummers in Rebel units wore captured red coats which was an interesting bit of trivia. I dont think I would have liked to have been a rebel in red.
The variety of colours for rebel units.
Some nice history to go with the nice models!
