Hi Guys,
Unfortunately with the introduction of Internet Explorer V6 and its insistence on rendering HTML in accordance with the strict rules of the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) the Java Script menus that powered this website for the past year or so now stay permanently open when viewed in Internet Explorer version 6.
I will re-write the script to comply with W3C but that may take a little while so in the meantime I have moved all but the first level navigation to this page.
All the internal links come first and they are followed by the external ones. Have fun and many thanks to uncle Bill Gates.

We are the recreated Colonel John Campbell's Canadian Indian Department and Captain Alexander Fraser's Company of Select Marksmen, as well as Captain David de Monin’s Company of Rangers—all together, we portray Colonel Campbell’s “Corps of Savages.” Our goal is to work closely with museums, research organizations, and historic sites to present the most accurate possible portrayal of the life of the common soldier in the frontier war fought on the Lakes and through the Adirondacks.
