Dear Mr.Cornwell, thank you so very much for the Rifles. I am a 63 year old retired Rifleman from The Queens own Rifles of Canada ’59-79. Keep them coming. Light infantry battalions were first employed by the British in America against the French and Indians in 1755. Two years later Wolfe selected all the best shots and employed them as skirmishers. In 1777 Col.Ferguson was given orders to form a Corps of Rifleman for service in America, and so on. If you want more info just let me know, it’s free. A proud X Rifleman, Hans
