Welcome to Litsy!

#150PnPCoverParty catch up post for #militia Wickham and Wentworth. The military is about the only thing they have in common.

“They could talk of nothing but officers.”

Wickham is not the only (or even most) charming and seductive cad in a #militia uniform in 19th century writing. Meet Sgt. Francis 'Frank' Troy. He is VERY good at sword drills.

“I remember the time when I liked a red coat myself very well - and indeed I do still at my heart”.

Mrs. Bennet is just as fascinated by the #militia officers just as her daughters when the officers arrived at Meryton. 🙄

This is book 1 of the Starbuck Chronicles by Bernard Cornwell, which covers his adventures during the major battles of the American Civil War. So far only read this one, but do want to get to the rest of the series. This one was a very enjoyable and informative read. #militia #150PnPCoverParty

Lydia‘s dirty little #militia fantasy ... “tenderly flirting with at least six”. 😏

Do you know how hard it was to not use Outlander for this? Anyway, I started thinking of the human army in the Hobbit (it might have worked) and ran a search. What comes up? Some game somewhere where there is a freaking Hobbit #Militia!! I have no clue what this is but look at how cute with their little weapons 😍 Totally using it for today's prompt. 😂

Illustration from 1893 edition of Evangeline depicting the British #militia expelling the Acadians from Nova Scotia.
(Whew! That was a hard one. 😌)
