I look forward to attending and will bring a collection of 'period' hand-forged tools and would be pleased to participate in Education Day.

Hi !
     10 American Regiments = How many Soldiers ?   ¯\(°_o)/¯

Alain,

        At this time we have 465 men at Arms confirmed. This does not include Tall Ship or Boat Crews.

Cheers

David
