Colours Of The British 7th Foot Or Royal Fuzileers SYW

This was ultimately a famous British regiment but had a rather drab SYW (from a wargamer's perspective!) as it spent much of the war in garrison in Gibraltar. No doubt this was essential duty and the fame of the regiment seems more to have stemmed from its later history.

Again no point in re-inventing the wheel so here is the Kronoskaf page with history and uniform details:

  1. Nicely done as always David and such a contrast to those 'gaudy' (😉) Spanish flags!

    1. Thank you, Donnie :-) Indeed; we're all playing at re-creating history, aren't we? So a lot of invention is no problem... ;-)

      All the best,

      David.
