This is a great link! How did you find it? And are there others like it covering different events and time periods?

I love the smell of gunpowder in the morning. To me it smells like....PIRACY!

Wow! Those sites are incredible! I am particularly interested in the cartridge box, which is very similar to the one found in the wreckage of the Whydah. Does anyone know exactly how the inner wooden supports for the pouch were constructed? I wonder if there are any other original examples of these types of cartridge pouch with the wooden pieces intact, so we could see how they are made and put together? :lol:
