Drill

At Lilburne's, we like to drill.  When we are on the march and on the battlefield it is important that we manoeuvre efficiently as a 'body'. At its simplest, this means being the correct spacing apart and all facing the same way!

Of course there is more to it than that, and we hold drill sessions at musters and training events so that new members can become familiar with the moves, and for more experienced people to refresh and refine their skills.

Barry Siler has made a very good guide to drill, 17th century style. Please note that the wording of some of the commands varies slightly from those that we use.
