Our thanks go to David O'Brien for sending us the following contribution. Crimean War British Line Infantry The following pics illustrate variations on the Crimean War British Line infantry uniform at the Battle of the Alma (i.e. fairly clean and in good condition): 2 Fusilier and 3 Foot regiments and a front and rear view of a Rifle Brigade rifleman. Modifications include helmet height, haversack, blanket backpack, canteens, rifle strap. Backpacks and haversack are Green stuff Canteens (as are the messtins) are sliced Plastruct The paper additions use 80gms paper (thicker paper is too bulky) and an inkjet printer set to best quality. To use they should be copied and pasted into Word using the insert picture command and scaled.
