The Light Infantry trained heavily in conventional heavy infantry drill, but also in the intricacies of skirmishing, moving forward in pairs in extended order, making use of cover, and firing at specific targets in an attempt to rattle the enemy line. They wore similar uniforms to their comrades in the line, but generally wore distinctive blue trousers. Many Colonels spent serious cash on adding plumes and other ornaments to the mens uniforms, so a regiment in parade order would look very splendid indeed. Boxed Set containing 36 plastic infantry with metal command.
