  • I really appreciate how authentic you all are but also realistic. No need for someone to endure a terrible headache or to have a sore bum because gold bond isn't authentic.
  • Thanks for bringing back so many memories from when I was in "the hobby" back during the 125th Anniversary marching with Holme's Brigade. I had a wedge tent as well, but I bought a rope tention, wood frame bed with a straw tick, candle lantern on my bread box table and ammo box for all my other traps. And, of course, my Enfield rifle musket. God, I miss the hobby.

    Having been in the US military myself I think you would have made an awesome real military top Sgt.
  • Everytime I watch one of these videos, I'm impressed by the amount of time and effort that goes into everything you guys do. You truly honor the soldiers of the war and what they believed in. Huzzah!
  • Well this video inspired me to get one, got a used one today in Flagstaff Arizona, wish me luck.

    As a wwii reenactor, its cool to see alot of the comparisons w you guys. We also use ammo cans for hiding stuff. I personally put my phone and charging pack in there, along w extra enblocks and such for my garand. Cots as well, we hide stuff under.

    And no this is not an excuse for you to untie the closed a frame to look inside, little kids...

    Really really cool tent set up. Thanks for sharing this, and thanks for the great ideas. I'm enjoying all the Regiment's vids.
  • Get a reproduction bread box; used mine as a nightstand when I set it upright on end and the lid was where my lantern, spectacles, a testament and tin plate went. Below were a few books and my ammo box full of my gun cleaning patches and kit, a tin of musket caps, a powder flask and measure.

    Thanks for your honesty when addressing us "hardcores" for the warning on the well.........csmpimg with muskets
  • I enjoy your videos. I'm glad you attempt to hide the non-authentic extras we use for comfort and to continue with the hobby as we get older. My question is in which video do you tell how to make your cone pick or nipple pick? The sutler's prices for a piece of wire is unreal.

    Panther Primitives ,sutler out of West Virginia has some awsome wooden water kegs. I’m going to get a 5 gal for myself, maybe a 10 gal for the company . They also have smaller chared oak ones for the Burbon & Rum, ect,,. Just do a search on line for them. Yes cost a bit but every year I try to get something more to improve my impression.
  • @danielkohli1542
    Thanks for doing this video it has inspired me hide as much modern stuff as possible.
  • @CAPDude44
    This seems like a really healthy and fun unit to be in. I've reenacted before, but I've had bad experiences with toxic units and members
  • Having dropped out of ACW back in 1997, I remember that it was a trend not to try to hide the farby stuff, but not to bring it. Has that changed so much?
