Prestonpans part 5

Many of the British regiments which took part in the '45 would later go on to fight in the Seven Years War/French and Indian War in North America. The 44th and 46th Regiments were the unlucky ones as they had been defeated twice by the Jacobites then again by the Amerindians and Canadiens as part of Braddock's campaign in 1755.
