were issued, although some scholars have suggested that they would have been captured American Springfield Model 1795 Musket (British forces under Isaac Brock captured over 1200 Muskets and over 200 Rifles at Detroit) while some others contend they may have used trade muskets instead. The Rangers found that the standard infantry bayonet was too cumbersome for bush fighting and often used hatchets (tomahawks) instead. The Rangers were recruited locally from Essex County and enrolled into the militia, but not permitted to quit the British service at their leisure as sedentary Militia could. Fort Malden National Historic Site (Canada) has in recent years employed summer students for the re-created unit at the Park and regional re-enactments. There is also a Modern Re-enacting unit that recreates the Rangers; they are based out of Amherstburg, Ontario and work in conjunction with Fort Malden. The Rangers are perpetuated in the modern Canadian Army by the Essex and Kent Scottish Regiment. Corps of Provincial Artificers Attached to the Royal Sappers and Miners. Some of its other ranks were Black individuals, many of whom had formed Captain Runchey's Company of Coloured Men (a local militia unit) at the Battle of Queenston Heights. Incorporated Artillery Company A volunteer artillery unit. Incorporated Militia Battalion The Incorporated Militia Battalion was formed from volunteers from the militia in 1813. Originally scattered in several garrisons, the battalion concentrated at York, before seeing action on the Niagara peninsula. The uniform of red coats had green facings, although uniforms were issued erratically and not all the companies would have had an official, recognized uniform. The entire unit fought at the Battle of Lundy's Lane where its commander, Lieutenant-Colonel William Robison (a captain in the 8th (King's) Regiment at the start of the war) was seriously wounded. The unit was always used as a body of skirmishing light infantry, and late in 1814, Lieutenant-General Gordon Drummond proposed to give the battalion the same uniform as the Glengarry Light Infantry. In the modern Canadian Army, because the Battalion of Incorporated Militia was recruited from various parts of Upper Canada, it is perpetuated today by four Ontario-based units: the Lincoln and Welland Regiment, the Queen's York Rangers, the Brockville Rifles and the Princess of Wales Own Regiment. These units all carry the battle honour awarded to the battalion in the aftermath of the war. Loyal Essex Volunteers A volunteer militia company, sometimes called the "Essex Rangers",
