Hi all,

The command strip for SYW Brit infantry has what looks like 2 flag holders - why? French had one. Did the Brits carry a greater density of flags?

One was the King's colour, the Union flag, the other flag was the Regimental colour.

Through the travail of the ages Midst the pomp and toil of war Have I fought and strove and perished Countless times upon this star.
So as through a glass and darkly The age long strife I see Where I fought in many guises, Many names but always me.
So forever in the future Shall I battle as of yore, Dying to be born a fighter But to die again once more.
