Hello Sir, I completely enjoy your work and have read from several of your series and novels. Having recently read The Fort and only last month entering into Sharpe’s world, I have a question about light infantry and their green jackets. I can’t remember if it was part of The Fort’s historical note, but did you find that the “rifle green” jackets of the light infantry are attributed to Sir John Moore and additionally to him picking this up by seeing the Continental Marines? I enjoy the multiple references to such a simple thing. Thank you (for your work, not just if you answer this question)
