18th century, British-French Colonial War in North America.
Major Robert Rogers' Troop (Roger's Rangers) for Wilderness Warfare was formed in 1757 from battle-hardened American hunters and frontiersmen with 4 officers and 60 men as "His Majesty's Independent Companies of American Rangers" and soon grew to battalion strength.
Complete depiction with fighting Rangers (including leader, bugler and flag bearer) and Indians. Various groups and combination figures.
The Rangers also had an Indian company under their own "officers" and a "cadet company" in which officers of the regular British army were trained in the special warfare of "forest fighting".
The constant small-scale warfare against the French was not interrupted even in the depths of winter (the typical Indian snowshoes were part of the equipment). The Rangers performed scouting duties, raided French settlements and villages of hostile Indians, observed and disturbed the construction of the new French fort Carillon (Ticonderoga), and engaged in a series of extremely fierce battles with the enemy. In the bloodiest of their engagements, the "Battle of the Snowshoes", (winter 1758) 146 men of the small elite force fell.
The clothing and armament incorporated Indian elements that had proved practical for life in the forest. The Rangers wore the fringed American hunting shirt (though uniformly green), trousers of the same colour, various caps and caps, moccasins, belts with hunting knife and tomahawk, hunting bag and powder horn. The weapon was generally the long-barreled rifled hunting rifle, the accurate "long rifle". The smoothbore army rifle was also part of the troops' armament. - Wikipedia -
