French Revolutionary wars photos

Here I am third from the left at Audley End House, in about 91. We are about to skirmish with the British and allied forces.
So, after leaving the 46eme I had up and joined the 3eme, which was a small, but authentic group who didn't really take themselves too seriously and were good fun. They were following a bicentennial programme so 1992 was 1792 and changes in equipment followed this pattern. I like the above photo - as you can see it was a motley bunch but that was the nature of French revolutionary troops but we're mostly all smiling and it was a talented group. We often wore clogs or went barefoot in the pursuit of authenticity but we were also capable of doing silly stuff when required. A lot of Napoleonic events were abroad but at this time I was well-paid and was able to go off campaigning with other nationalities, including eastern bloc reenactors which was the most strange of all as this was before the Berlin Wall's collapse and so on. Sadly this group is no more but the ex caporal Kevin Garlick (to the right of me with clay pipe) is busy making historical footwear for reenactors and museums and the like. Check out his site.
