Anyone know if they had a standard carriage color during the TYW or was it on a battery by battery basis? Thanks for any help! |

Probably one or possibly two standard colours as the Danish artillery was a well organised service funded directly by the Crown however the actual colour(s) used have not been recorded or at least not quoted in any text I've read. |

Thanks Daniel. Figured you'd have an answer one way or the other. Looks like its red furniture for my guys! |

It is certainly one of the colours associated with the Danes with their 2nd most senior regiment of Foot being the "Red regiment". An alternative colour would be light blue which Christian seems to have been fond of, his Guards were dressed in light blue uniforms and he ordered a lot of light blue silk cloth for standards & flags. |
