NEW PHOTOS!!!
On July 12 & 13, 2003 a large detachment of the Georgia Refugees journeyed
north ward to join our friends in the
KOP to meet the dastardly Tory forces
gathered
Brattonsville, SC . We were once
again victorious and much
celebration ensued.
On February 8, 2003 the Georgia Refugees sallied forth to meet the Tory forces
gathered on Kettle Creek
near the settlement of Washington Georgia. We were victorious and much
celebration ensued.
OLD PHOTOS!!!
The Refugees bravely
sally forth to
Old Salem, North Carolina to show our stuff on September 22-23, 2001. Many thanks to all who
put up with our eccentricities.
A few hardy souls
journey
“over the mountain” to attend the events at King’s Mountain, North Carolina on August
18 and 19, 2001, and were warmly greeted by the members of The King’s Own
Patriots. Despite having to act
like Tories, the Refugees had a great time and wish to thank our kind hosts.
Our second mostest
newest photos, of our third scheduled event of the year, the
muster day at American Village down in Montevallo, Alabama on July 4, 2001.
Huge turnout by the public and lots of opportunities to interact with
folks. Not that there’s anything
wrong with that.
And here are the now-not-so-new photos of our first unit event, held at Fort Toulouse in Wetumpka, Alabama the weekend of April 6-8, 2001.
Linked below are the photos from our first meeting held on Ross Rich’s farm down in Chelsea, Alabama on January 27, 2001. In the interest of speeding up the download times, these are just the photos for right now, with no snappy patter. (The snappy stuff will have to come later).
First up is ARTILLERY
PRACTICE!!! (Huzza!)
Here
is the gun crew looking all serious, and then a picture of us
preparing the piece to fire
(notice the large arse of the adjutant filling the photo), and then working
the worm to
clear the bore.
(And yes, that IS civilization in the background in the form of Ross’s
long-suffering next-door neighbors.
And yes, we did fire two blanks, and yes, it was loud, but Ross seems
to think they are used to it.)
The next set are the 1st Squad
being
harangued by our drill instructor,
Chris Long from The American Village.
“I don’t know if the
British have any fear of you, but you scare the hell out of me!”
Then we have some more of us as we
shoulder arms,
and
take aim. The lineup you see are in the last two photos, from left to
right, are Chris Long, Terry Oglesby, Charlie McCulloh, Al Stone, Mark Lewis,
Steve Brown, and Mark Hubbs.
Please bear with us as we
assemble more photos.
