Flags of Swiss Regiment De Meuron in British Service 1795-1816

Although I concentrate on flags of the mid-18th century and earlier, I do on a whim sometimes do flags of other periods, although I do not often have time and energy to do so. So, as I have not posted any flags for a while and to keep things ticking over here while I am working on various flags and their texts including Prussian IR 49, some Austrian flags, more French flags and also more Spanish flags plus a flag commission etc. etc., I post here the flags of Swiss Regiment De Meuron in British service, both pre and post 1801. Someone might find a use for them! There are three versions of the King's Colour as I could find no definitive description of that colour but did find examples of those three versions of the flag. So it is up to whoever wishes to use them to choose the King's Colour they find most appealing!

The history of the regiment can be found here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regiment_de_Meuron

  2. A nice diversion and flags that, as is my want, will be useful for Imaginary forces I'm sure. As always keep up the good work:)

    1. Thanks, Steve. :-) Yes, I flog on - although rather hampered lately by the freezing weather and the freezing house, as our central heating is kaput and even the gas finre in the living room died! Really looking forward to the milder weather from the weekend, if the forecast is correct... Hope your house is warmer than ours!

      All the best,

      David.
