They took part at the battle of Montmorency, that of the Plains of Abraham on September 13, 1759 (placed at the center of the attacking lines), and the Battle of Sainte-Foy in 1760. The uniform of the regiment was a bit like that of the Régiment de la Reine: a white-grey coat with red reversed sleeves with three ornate buttons: red vest, white-grey pants; black shoes with metallic buckles. However, contrary to La Reine, the tricorne was black felt with a gold galon.
