As war draws closer, the King has authorized a new field battery. Here is the St George battery, drilling with borrowed guns. The Royal Foundry has promised delivery of new gun barrels soon.
The unit is dressed in the traditional Blue and Red of the army's Field Artillery as opposed to the Red and Green of the Marine batteries.

St George's Battery
Born and raised in the suburbs of Montreal 7 decades ago. Began playing with toy soldiers at 5 years. Started painting & converting at about 12 yrs and wargaming about 15 yrs. Never really stopped.
5 years in the Black Watch of Canada Cadets, 5 years at the Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean followed by 4 in the navy. 25 years with CPC in IT simultaneous with 23 years running a boarding kennel. Inherited my love of toy soldiers from my mother's father. Married with a pack of litle Italian Greyhounds and a cat. Prematurely retired and enjoying leisure to game, maintaining our 170 yr old farmhouse and just living.
