    Great stuff. Brings back memories of my days in our corps, "The Spirit of '76", out of Albany, NY. I was a fifer 🙂 Miss the parades and musters!

    I am sad to see what the Pandemic has done to the Corps. Here's to a Speedy recovery.
    That being said: I do not have the proper words to express my pride in a group that shows such Dedication, Discipline and Hard Work as you people. Thank you.

    Beautiful video and excellent musicianship.
    Those damned wool uniform coats over linen shirts and wescots are hot as hell in the summer. I know because I was a drummer ('74 - '78) in the 9th Pennsylvania Regiment of the Continental Line (Brigade of the American Revolution) based in Erie, PA. Due to the huge backlog of excellent Cooperman drums in 1974 I made my own drum. Using an unfinished Ludwig wood shell and rims 16" diameter, 18" tall I used linen ropes, calfskin heads, catgut snares, blacksmith made snare tensioner, solid brass head tack sunburst air hole pattern. Handmade buff drum sling w/ blacksmith made S hook, rosewood drumsticks, proper musician's hangar (Spanish blade) with American styled slotted brass guard and turned maple handle.

    I would have liked to have heard "Lili Bolero", "British Grenadiers" and the original "Yankee Doodle".

    I really enjoyed this - -very fine. But sadly I was reminded of a great sadness that was transgressed here beginning at 3:20. "Always put horses at the end of the parade."

    Do you think these are drum rudiments from 1776? Sound like DCI to me.

    ok, so, why are they wearing British red coats and the Grand Union flag of the Continental Army? Who are these guys?

    • @lawofficesofrobertpbergman7665
      @lawofficesofrobertpbergman7665 Год назад +1

      Musicians in both armies wore reverse colors to the unit's uniforms. British regiments with blue facings would appear with blue coats with red trim, for example. This is the reverse of the Continental Army uniform that was blue coats with red facings.

    • @lawofficesofrobertpbergman7665

      Notice that the standard-bearer is wearing a blue coat with red facings. The regular uniform.

      As a Resident of Exeter New Hampshire it makes me glad to see the Union Jack in the Corner of our Yankee Flag. We should never of gotten rid it. Or the Red Coats.😊👍🇺🇸🇬🇧
