From 2017, kitchen for the Officers' Mess at Fort George. Garrison weekend and AGM for the 41st Regiment. Good things happen in there!

Reenacting Memory! I find this photo compelling as it illustrates, what would be a wartime strength company, somewhere just over 70 muskets. 41st Regiment reenactors and the 41st squaddies (summer students - white trousers) from Fort George under my command at Fort Erie.

What a gentleman! Really enjoyed this talk. Looking forward to sharing it closer to the book launch dates in North America.

Great fun chatting with @aroberts_andrew about his new book this morning! It was a true honour. We are going to release the video closer to his North American launch dates which I believe have been pushed back as follows: November 17th: U.S.A November 24th: Canada

Reenacting Memory: Mississinewa 2023, our version of a last stand? A favourite moment. The crowd pleaser for the home town fans. They wanted me to screw it up and I obliged in spectacular fashion!

On this day in 1814, history's first steam-powered warship, the 32-gun Demologos, is launched in New York harbour. Ordered during the War of 1812 to protect the city from British warships, the conflict ends before the vessel can be commissioned.
