First raised 1670. Divided into 1st and 2nd Sjaellendske Regiments in 1675.
Service:
Served in the Great Northern War; landing at Humlebaek 1700; Scanian Campaign 1709 and 1710; battle of Wismar 1711; battle of Gadebusch and sieges of Stade and Stralsund 1712. Sent to Zealand 1716.
Disbanded 1721.
The motto on the standard means: "Everything Has Its Time" (one of many mottoes carried by the various standards of this regiment).
And this was probably the uniform late 17th to early 18th century:
Luvvly!

Very nice standards, they look great, a very handy unit for the GNW, god to know!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Donnie. Yes, they did not serve in the WSS, sadly, but that shouldn't stop anyone using them in a Marlburian army, of course. :-)

Splendid flags there David:).
ReplyDeleteThank you, Steve. Even as small as they'll probably be used they should still be fairly striking, I hope.

David.
Thanks for sharing more excellent flags and uniform details.

Thank you, Willz. :-) Probably back briefly to French infantry at Warburg next but more Danes and Dutch on the way...
