Nicely brisk and well timed. I hope you and yours can come to New England. It would be a an honor.
Be sure you say HUZZAY not Huzzah, that’s how it was said in the 18th century
Yes. REF: allthingsliberty.com/2014/04/you-say-huzzah-they-said-huzzay/
@@billbahr Elmo learned a new word today (or, at least, a new pronunciation)! Thank you!
Gotta say the Smyth manual looks cleaner.
Fast and well performed !
I am planning a quick video on von Steuben's facing movements later this year.
"To the Right, -- Face! Two motions.
1st. Turn briskly on both heels to the right, lifting up the toes a little, and describing the quarter of a circle.
2d. Bring back the right foot to its proper position, without stamping.
To the Left, -- Face! Two motions.
1st. Turn to the left as before to the right.
2d. Bring up the right foot to its proper position."
Note: the right foot makes the adjustment.
Thanks!
To complete my posting below on facings:
"To the Right about, -- Face! Three motions.
1st, Step back with the right foot, bringing the buckle opposite the left heel, at the same time seizing the cartridge-box with the right hand.
2d. Turn briskly on both heels, and describe half a circle.
3d. Bring back the right foot, at the same time quitting the cartridge-box."
Note: again, as before in the other facings, the right foot always makes the adjustment.
Thank you!
