The 5/60th were Wellington's elite unit, his "eyes and ears".
In this short film I learn about the history of the 5/60th rifles during the Peninsular war.
A special thanks to Steve Davies and Peter Wright of the 5/60th reenactors group. Feel free to check out their website - [ Ссылка ]
Redcoat is actually me, Christian Anthony Parkinson, but as that name is too long for my twitter handle I settled on @redcoathistory (Give me a follow!) . I’m a writer, filmmaker and journalist originally from the UK but living in Johannesburg, South Africa.
