RIR-02 - Rhode Island Regiment Officer with Flag | John Jenkins Designs
This individual figure represents an officer carrying a flag of the Continental Army's Rhode Island Regiment during the American War of Independence.
The Rhode Island Regiment formed part of the American forces that fought for independence from Great Britain, serving during a period when the Continental Army was developing from individual colonial military organisations into a more structured national force.
Regimental flags were important symbols of identity and served as visible rallying points for soldiers during eighteenth-century military operations.
Officers were responsible for maintaining discipline, directing movements and ensuring that their men remained organised during marches and engagements.
The Rhode Island regiments played a significant role in the American Revolutionary War, participating in military operations as part of the Continental Army.
The regiment's history is also associated with the important contribution of African American and Indigenous soldiers to the struggle for independence.
RIR-02 provides a distinctive command and colour-party figure for collectors assembling a Rhode Island Regiment formation.
It can be displayed alongside compatible Rhode Island infantry, musicians and supporting artillery figures to create a larger historical military scene.
Now available from The Military Workshop.
Brand: John Jenkins
