Interesting demonstration of French infantry drill of the French & Indian War. At Fort Ticonderoga on Lake Champlain in northern New York State.

    I knew most of that, but my 15 year old son was fascinated!

    Thank you!

    I found it interesting how they would keep handing loaded muskets to their best shots. Explains how seventeen thousand Englishmen got their butts handed to them by three thousand-five hundred soldiers from behind a log wall.
