"German and Russian Regimental Standards 1914 help please" Topic

Can anyone provide a resource which shows the regimental standards of German and Russian Infantry regiments in 1914.

I have found several references to standards being flown during the early engagements in august 1914 and was thinking of using that as an idea to differentiate command units in my 1914 era forces

If you click the leuchttisch tab there is also evidence of them being carried on the western front again early 1914

Flags were used by some units as late as the battles in the Race to the Sea and some of attacks near Nieuport in October 1914. I don't have any references to the range of flags.

I am also looking for Russian flags/standards 1914 I have an idea what I am looking for,

I am going to the Triples on Saturday to have a look for them,

I will flag up what I find.

Thanks to both of you. The nice people over on the Pendraken Forum (even Shawn T visits :)) found some for me as well as providing a link to colour examples in English

Some examples into early 1915 in the West and much later in the East and Macedonia (1916 pic shows cavalry standards being carried)

I have to say I struck out at the Triples with the 1914 Russian flags,

A lot of helpful ideas from the traders,
I was starting to looking into making my own,
I will have a look on the Pendraken Forum.

Thank Mac

was going to suggest flagforum.com but a quick search under Europe didn't throw anything up. Wouldn't mind details on Russian standards for the two divisions I have painted up….here is to research ;)
