British Regiments of the Seven Years War/French and Indian War: The 44th Regiment.

The 44th Regiment, which was part of the Irish establishment in 1755, was sent to Virginia to take part in Braddock's campaign to Monongahela. It had yellow facings. Upon arrival in America, the regiment recruited more men for the regiment.
I have painted up this regiment as it would have looked in North America. The big difference, is that the breeches are not red but white. This also allows me to use them in the American Revolution.
I will post shots of my modeled regiment later. The figures are Accurate/Revell minatures.
