Régiment de Berry by Don Troiani
This regiment had 2 battalions in New France and they fought at Carillon and Ste Foy. I have to say I like this painting a lot and I can't understand why its taken me so long to post it...maybe I was saving it.

Yamasee War 1715-1717
About 7% of South Carolina's white citizenry was killed, making the war bloodier than King Philip's War, which is often cited as North America's bloodiest war involving Native Americans.[1]
The Yamasee War (also spelled Yemassee War) (1715–1717) was a conflict between British settlers of colonial South Carolina and various Native American tribes, including the Yamasee, Muscogee, Cherokee, Chickasaw, Catawba, Apalachee, Apalachicola, Yuchi, Savannah River Shawnee, Congaree, Waxhaw, Pee Dee, Cape Fear, Cheraw, and others. Some of the Native American Indian groups played a minor role while others launched attacks throughout South Carolina in an attempt to destroy the colony.
A
Dutch view of the Yamasee War. The full title, translated from the
Dutch, reads "The gruesome attack of the Indians on the English, in
Carolina, West Indies, on 19 April 1715

Building Carpentry into 1776 Soldiers’ Life Programs
They say
All aspects of soldiers’ lives relied on teamwork whether fighting, cooking, or surviving a campaign. Soldiers’ carpentry is no exception and provide an exciting project with which to tell the much bigger story of 1776, one chop at a time
