I have so enjoyed this war series. Being an old soldier myself, it is hard to fathom what carnage the men went through just because of the strategy of those days. This one is no exception Mary Beth very well composed indeed. #8525783

Wow, thank you all so very much for your very kind comments. They are truly appreciated.

If you're in the Pittsburgh area in early August 2010, come photograph this re-enactment. Here's the info from the website:

The annual battle reenactment shows how Colonel Henry Bouquet and his troops defeated Native forces that had ambushed the British in 1763 on their way to save the besieged Fort Pitt. The morning battle portrays the events that occurred on August 5th and the afternoon engagement shows the August 6th tactics that led to British victory. Also featured are period 18th century military camps, an 18th century trades area, 18th century craftspeople, and other special programs.
