Figures are from Fife and Drum miniatures and represents the British Light Infantry campaign uniform for 1776-77. Slouched hats, short jackets and overalls, and black equipment. Uniform is based on both orderly books and the famous DelDe Garta paintings of the fighting at the Chew House at Germantown in October 1777. These are really beautiful figures and a joy to paint.

Stands within the battalion represent the following light companies from these regiments: 4th (blue) , 5th (green), 10th (yellow), 17th (white), 22d(buff), 23d (blue), 27th (buff), 35th ( orange ) and 38th (yellow). This is one of the organizations of the 1st Light Infantry battalion in late 1776. I mention this as one organization as companies appear to have been switched out and moved around when the 3rd battalion was disbanded.
