RE-ENACTMENT GROUPS ATTENDING
We have been fortunate to secure the attendance of His Majesty's Loyal 44th Regiment of Foot - the famed East Essex Regiment, for whom our show is named. At the Battle of Salamanca, 22nd July 1812, their illustrious forebears took the Eagle of 62e Ligne, which may be viewed at the new Essex Regimental Museum. The 44th will perform drill manoeuvres in full Napoleonic uniform and we are hoping to persuade them to demonstrate their skilled musketry.
The 44th will be joined by a contingent of L'Empereur's 45e Regiment de la Ligne, uniformed in the manner of the original 45e - we trust that the gentlemanly rules of the water source will be honoured and that fraternisation will be the order of the day.
The World War 2 Allied re-enactment group Autumn '44, who also represent the Essex regiment of the period, together, we hope, with some colleagues from another Essex WW2 group have confirmed attendance and we have secured the presence of a Viking re-enactment group to join our company.
We shall be negotiating with 95th Rifles once our colleagues at Hylands House provide a contact address.
