Hi George, Cpl Zaslow here. I run the channel and I will break the facade of “10th Regiment” for this comment. I’ll have you know that I am a Lieutenant in the Marine Corps and the 10th is proud to have multiple other active, reserve and veterans in our ranks. We reenact as we are passionate about our history, regardless of service. Hope this educated you on your uninformed comment.

This is not the case and most communities in my home state of Pa spoke German at the time and came from the HRE or Switzerland. Delaware and new jersey were mostly made up of dutch and swedish and new York was a mixed bag. New england and the south were the only places were they were dominant and even in those areas the French and the Spanish respectively still had influence. The Americans were not just British people living in a different place. The culture and lifestyles were completely different regardless of the shared ethnic ancestry. And for the vast majority of places In the country the soldiers and even the "regulars" that the Americans would've interacted with would've been from their own local communities. I don't mean to rant but I'm a little sick of British people insisting the war was a civil war between the same people because it's far more complex than that. And your accent would make it less realistic. The roticity in English accents have changed since then. The modern American accent more closely resembles British English of the 17th and 18th centuries than the English one of today.

In the 6th grade, our teacher for whatever reason owned hundreds of 1700's musket replicas. They split the entire 6th grade class into minute men and red coats. I was personally was part of his majesty's army that died in battle that day. The entire 6th grade class did a reenactment of the Battle of Lexington & Concord. For over a month, our teacher who owned the muskets rehearsed with us and taught us marching, how to reload the muskets we were using, gave us roles to actual historical figures at that time. We shot blanks at each other in front of our parents (with signed permission) and wore period pieces that were pretty close to the times. Learned a lot and didn't realize how special this was until I was a lot older. I'm now 29 years old and will never forget that day. It was intense for our little minds, but i loved it.

This video was so cool not only a really cool first person view into history, but the cameraman was absolutely in the fight not only was he one of the first men to engage “The First Shot” but was also a part of the front line chasing down the fleeing rebels, and was still one of the first men back in formation. Then, at the end, he was one of the last men to engage the oncoming Minutemen he managed to push his way and escape very fun to watch

My ancestor, a Captain Francis Marsden of the 5th Regiment of Foot MIGHT have been at Lexington with his regiment/Concord. What I do know, he was one of several Captain's in the 5th Regiment to be wounded at the Battle of Bunkers Hill. He returned home to Yorkshire, where he died at Burntwood Hall, aged 27 5 years later in 1780. His sister later named her son John Francis Carr in his memory. There is a monument at Wakefield Cathedral, Yorkshire in Captain Francis Marsden's memory and that of his parents. My great grandmother was a Marsden.

It is amazing that back then, the traffic lights were candle lit. And a child was hoisted into the air to change the red to green. All for some bread and cheese. The day of the British invasion that little boy kept the red candle on extra-long. So that Mr. Revere could have much more time to drive his jeep and warn the good people of Concorde & Lexington. Most of the casualties were heart failure related. Back in those days, people were morbidly obese and read books, which required lots of sitting. Most soldiers put a knife on the end of their stick gun to butter their bread and cut ham. Lunch and then some fighting.

@HM10thFoot

Жыл бұрын

Hi Marvin, Thanks for your comment! You raise an interesting and commonly asked point. Chris actually hinted at this as well. The fact that due to the lack of recordings of English accents from the time period, it is challenging to authentically determine how soldiers would have sounded. It's worth noting that modern British accents evolved from the Victorian era, and we know that the Victorian era British accent was drastically different than the ones preceding it. Therefore, accurately portraying something without concrete historical knowledge is indeed a tricky task. Thus we choose to speak in our native accents rather than poorly fake an accent that we aren't even sure is correct! By the way, I highly recommend checking out Chris' amazing channel, where he delves into this very question! Best regards, Your friends in the 10th Regiment!

@@HM10thFoot I would say Victorian English slowly rippled from London outward over the course of the late 19th and early 20th century, but to date regional accents still prevail very strongly in England. Although, this is changing quicker than ever before because of modern tech. I personally think it is a common misconception in the US that all English speak in a uniform posh English accent. Even Shakespeare is meant to be read by someone who sounds more like Blackbeard the Pirate and less like Ian McKellen, but that is a conversation for another time. What I would say though, is that it is widely believed that you, the Americans, pronounce words truer to the way in which 18th English people once spoke. So, by default, your own accents are closer than most modern Englishmen. That said, if you look at the accent of those on the Island of Tangier, VA that accent remained mostly isolated from mainland U.S and therefore remained truer to a colonial accent. Now, should you KZread this accent, look for a short 2min video from “People Like Us” and you will hear an Anglo-American accent that is very similar to that of a modern West Country accent, which has not changed to drastically in England in the last 300 years. So, in terms of getting a “real” accent for re-enactment, I would say forget Jason Issacs from The Patriot and be a bit more flexible with your vowels. You guys, as I said, are the real English speakers! Good job guys!
