In the winter of 1758 three skirmishers of the Regiment de la Reine hear sounds of someone approaching their campsite in the woods of the colony of New York.

Just make sure it is not Santa and his reindeer or we might have many unhappy toy soldier collectors on Christmas Morning.

Hmm! It must have been the red coat that sent them scurrying into the woods:D

Hi Randy,

:D:D:D Once again, you have hit a long ball with the creative and clever pictures you post! I enjoy them greatly!

Warmest personal regards,

Pat :)
 
Randy,
I looked at the title "No Vacancy" and was expecting a Nativity scene. The skirmishers are wonderful, but Santa takes the cake! One thing , however, is the Red Santa Dress Tunic of 1754 has 5 silver-plated buttons, not the afore-pictured 7 brass button Undress pattern that correctly belongs post-1809. If you could do your homework, that'd be great:rolleyes::)
