The colonel was Anthony St Leger.[2] The regiment had yellow facings on their red coats.[3] It was sent to the Leeward Islands in January 1780. Five companies stationed on Tobago were captured June 1781.[3] The regiment returned to England and was disbanded in 1783 at York.[2] References1. ^{{cite book|last1=Messenger|first1=Charles|title=A History of British Infantry: For Love of Regiment, Volume 2, 1915-1994|date=1994|publisher=Pen and Sword|isbn=9781473814394|page=252|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9nB-AwAAQBAJ&lpg=PA252&dq=86th%20Regiment%20of%20Foot%20(Rutland%20Regiment)&pg=PA252#v=onepage&q=86th%20Regiment%20of%20Foot%20(Rutland%20Regiment)&f=false|accessdate=19 October 2014}} {{Regiments of Foot}}2. ^1 {{cite book|last1=Chichester|first1=Henry Manners|last2=Burges-Short|first2=George|authorlink1=Henry Manners Chichester|title=The records and badges of every regiment and corps in the British Army|date=1900|publisher=Gale & Polden|page=782}} 3. ^1 {{cite book|last1=Franklin|first1=Carl|title=British Army Uniforms of the American Revolution 1751-1783|date=2012|publisher=Casemate Publishers|isbn=9781848846906|page=233|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=i0DYFfcfgdsC&lpg=PA233&dq=86th%20Regiment%20of%20Foot%20(Rutland%20Regiment)&pg=PA233#v=onepage&q=86th%20Regiment%20of%20Foot%20(Rutland%20Regiment)&f=false|accessdate=19 October 2014}} 5 : Infantry regiments of the British Army|Military units and formations established in 1779|Military units and formations disestablished in 1783|Regiments of the British Army in the American Revolutionary War|1779 establishments in Great Britain |
