: Just found this site...I do longhunter impression (although a bit larger and balder than DDL) and for past 4 years reenact 77th and 42nd British Highlander, Grenadier Company...just came back from squirrel hunting trip last weekend, all in 18th century clothing, a foot of snow, and staying in 18th century cabin. LOTM is one of finest films of 18th century made. There is nothing quite like hunting and living for several days in 18th century clothing with a .54 caliber Berks Co. longrifle. Pax Aye!

Welcome & O'Siyo! :-)
Where abouts do you reenact the Highlanders?
I am involved in both Rev War and F&I War in the Pacific NW.
Rev War I use to do Butler's Rangers, but have since joined the BAR's German Feldjaeger Corps, & am forming a 2nd platoon out here.
F&I War I've worked on a Rogers' Rangers impression, but I am also looking at doing a *solo* Franche de la Marine impression(campaign style - sleeved waist coat / bonnet de police / & leggings and moccasins) because of a lack of "French" around here (we have many Rangers & Highlanders both north & south of me).
Look forward to hearing more from you! :-)
Alles Gute ~
