Can anyone direct me to some uniform details for the locally raised units that preceded the Kings African Rifles in 1902 ?
The Central Africa Regiment, The Uganda Rifles and the East Africa Rifles.

Chris Peers' Foundry books on east and central Africa cover these units and many more. |

I like the discussion board link John. Very useful thanks. Any suggestions for 28mm figures ? |

Khaki is true but based on the photos that I saw, belgium askari uniforms had a tint of green to the khaki but that may have been a problem with the photo. |
