Anyone know if there is/was a difference in the facings etc . between the 1st Battalion and the 2nd battalion of the 6th regt? Thanks in advance |

The facings were the same for both battalions. The differences were the company distinctions on the Raupenhelm: 1st Battalion
Grenadier Company – Red plume.
1st Fusilier Company – White.
2nd Fusilier Company – White over yellow.
3rd Fusilier Company – Green.
4th Fusilier Company – Green over yellow.
Light Company – Green plume. 2nd Battalion
Grenadier Company – Red over white plume.
5th Fusilier Company – Red.
6th Fusilier Company – Red over yellow.
7th Fusilier Company – Blue.
8th Fusilier Company – Blue over yellow.
Light Company – Green over white plume. and the fact that he second battalion carried the Ordinarfahne as opposed to the first battalion's liebfahne. |

For clarification between 1809 organization; at 3 fuzilier and 1 grenadier Co plus each co.'s Light troops vs 1811 of the above post, that is also from Artilleryman is here:

If you are doing 1809- the LT troops, for wargame purposes, are functioning in a separate co so 5 co. is more typical for "play". MG |
