While British style chevrons were often used on British supplied clothing in 1812-13, were the Spanish using red epaulettes before then? Was it one or two epaulettes? Did the Spanish Gauard follow suit? Thanks. |

Hi Major Bloodnok, just NCO epaulettes were worn officially before and after 1812-13.
One epaulette for second sergeants (right side).
Two epaulettes for first sergeants.
NCO epaulettes were in regimental facing colour, silver epaulettes for the guards. I hope this helps |

Oooh Loverly! Many thanks. I see I will have to repaint a few Seg'ts. epaulettes. |
