Württemberg grenadiers looked so like their Prussian counterparts that they wore white cloth covers over their grenadier mitres to distinguish them from the enemy.
Being a uniform and flag design service to wargamers and to the imaginary crowned heads of 17th and 18th Century Europe, especially of the Seven Years War period - now By Appointment to the Court of Saxe-Bearstein! (But please note that the uniforms and flags presented here are not fictional - they are genuine 17th and 18th Century uniforms and flags that are as authentic as I can make them from my sources.)
They wore white hats so they would know who the "good guys" were, huh? :-)
ReplyDeleteYup! :-) Everyone knows the Prussians were the bad guys, anyway, don't they? ;-)
