Independence Day Conformity

I like to dress up for our Independence Day Parade and march with the American Legion.

I hear comments from youngsters asking why a Pirate is marching with the Army.

Carrying my 45cal Kentucky Rifle(Ultrahigh Flintlock) at right shoulder arms is troublesome w/my TriCorne(cocked hat), and wearing it cocked to the right didn't feel right.

Image w/ flag is from the Keewatin Parade 2nd is Nashwauk Parade.

Roger's Rangers were a bit earlier and British, but I am choosing a lower class persona and that attire I believe will cover a wider time span.

All my articles were found in various adds in MUZZLELOADER publications.

The moccasin boots are awful hard on the feet!! A couple years I couldn't participate in the parade, but after a cardiac event and a couple Stents my feet and knees recovered!
