'........then I'll need to give the Ensign a Regimental Colour.......pity there aren't any definite descriptions of the original flags of this regiment. At least there have now been some research indicating that all of the 4 Highland battalions in North America in the 1750's/60's wore the Government or Black Watch set.
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.
They look great. Looking forward to seeing their first battle…
