Posted - August 17 2023 : 09:06:33 AM https://ealr.webs.com/activeunits.htm . The Ethan Allen Long Rifles - Active Units: . Members of the EALR are eligible to join any of the recreated units. There currently are four active units. - They cover the French and Indian and Revolutionary War time periods and also civilian colonial life in North America in the last half of the 18th century.
We promote safety and accuracy in the use of muzzle loading firearms along with public awareness of the living history of our early colonial and American heritage through education, demonstrations, recreation and reenactment conducted as authentically as possible. Some members like to try their hand at more than one group. . https://sites.google.com/site/lacompagniedelangis . We are a New England-based living history group portraying French Canadian milice (militia) and their Native allies as well as French Canadian and Native women/families during the French and Indian War (1754-1763). - We strive to be as historically correct as we reasonably can, and we are always trying to improve. - We enjoy talking with and educating the public about history as we continue to gather new skills and discover more about our time period. On the battlefield, we tend to move quickly and fire in pairs. - In camp, we demonstrate the way our unit would be while on campaign, and so our set-up is only what we could have carried with us. - Our goals are to safely and accurately represent the past while interacting with the public, learning from each other, and having fun. . If you want to learn more, we invite you to click on the links at the top left. 'Unit History’ and ‘About Us’ will tell you about our namesake Ensign Jean-Baptiste Levrault de Langis Montegron as well as provide information on the unit we portray today. The 'Photos' tab has photos from reenactments we've attended in the past. - If you're interested in joining, please visit our 'How to Join' page. - Our ‘Schedule of Events’ that shows our upcoming reenactments is on the right, and so is the link to our Facebook page.
