Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of Colonel Edmund Phinney´s Eighteenth Continental Regiment: Twelve Months´ Service in 1776; With Complete Muster-Rolls of the Companies November 4, it was voted that the cloth of the army should be dyed brown, and the distinction of the regiments should be made in the color of the facings; and the same day Congress "Resolved that each regiment consist of 728 men, officers included, to be divided into eight companies. Each company to consist of one captain, two lieutenants, one ensign, four sergeants, four corporals, two drums or fifes, and seventy-six privates." These were the preparations then made toward the organization of the twenty-six infantry regiments of the new Continental army, to go into service January 1, 1776, to take the places of the regiments whose terms of service would expire with December, 1775. From an act passed January 22, 1776, by the General Court, for regulating the militia of Massachusetts, the lawful equipment of a soldier of that date was as follows: - Officers and soldiers of sufficient ability were obliged to equip themselves, and the others were equipped by the towns.
