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.
