BRUNSWICK INFANTRY REGT. von SPECHT, 1776-77 (Colonel J. F. von Specht) (2) Color Bearer (Gefreitencorporal (with Princely Colors) (2) Musketeer (3) Drummer (Trommler) (light drill uniform) (guard mount uniform)
Arrived Quebec, Canada, 17 Sept. 1776. Principal engagements: Ticonderoga, Hubardton, Freeman's Farm, Bemis Heights, Saratoga. Upon arrival in Canada, the German regiments were uniformly equipped with knee high black cloth gaiters buttoned with from 12 to 18 metal buttons. For service in America they were equipped with the American "over-all," a loose fitting high waisted garment that strapped under the instep and buttoned snugly at the ankle with four or five buttons. This garment was supplied by the British from salvaged tentage and sails and from surplus naval stores of seamans trousers made of blue and white or red and white striped "tiken." German drummers and musicians of this period were distinguished by elaborated braid trimmings on the regimental coat. The drum aprons were of brown or white leather. The drums were brass shelled with embossed coats-of-arms. The drum ropes were tightened by means of the "slit-tie" leather keepers and the snares of a turn-screw. The Princely colors reversed the colors of the field and flames of the Regimental colors. Thus the regimental colors of this regiment had white flames on a blue field. The same held true for the other Brunswick infantry regiments.

The essence of America - that which really unites us - is not ethnicity, or nationality, or religion - it is an idea... that you can come from humble circumstances and do great things.

Wizards are SUPER AWESOME!
They've got those long beards and they carry magic wands! They can cast all kinds of crazy spells that will turn you into a bug or give you a really bad toothache! They also live to be a thousand years old.

Magic is SUPER AWESOME! Magic is a series of sleights of hand and misdrection that create an illusion for the viewer. Knowing magic makes you cooler and more popular with the ladies. In fact, most magicians have so many girlfriends, they start sawing them in half to get rid of a few.
