Detail - Della Gatta painting of
Battle of Germantown showing the 40th Ft L.I. The 40th Regiment of Foot has been reformed to commemorate the role of the British soldier who served in the colonies during America's struggle for independence, 1775-1783.

Often cold, ragged and half-starved, and 3,000 miles from home, the British armies fought so well because of their strict training and loyalty to their officers. Through camp life and battle reenactments, the membership of the 40th Foot relive, with exacting authenticity, the everyday life of the British soldier in this turbulent time.

The 40th Regiment of Foot participates in major living history/reenactment events throughout the eastern United States and Canada. The Regiment is a member of the British Brigade and the Brigade of the American Revolution, two of the largest and most respected living history organizations in the United States.
