Authorized in June, 1775, by the Continental Congress, the ten units consisted of “expert riflemen” from Maryland, Virginia and Pennsylvania. All members dressed in the distinctive frontier “hunting frocks” with ornamental fringe that had evolved along the Appalachian frontier, and had “an approved Rifle, handsome shot pouch, and powder horn, blanket, knapsack…” along with a variety of “savage” embellishments, like leggings and war paint, that made them look both wild and intimidating. The skillful, if undisciplined, riflemen served the country well as effective skirmishers and sharpshooters, becoming the “mortal aversion” of anyone in a red coat. At the end of their one-year enlistments many of these hardy fighters continued to forge the young nation by serving in new rifle regiments formed in their native states. |
