Years ago I was researching the colors for this regiment. I remember reading that the colors went with the unit to Bremen, but returned to HC. That they did not come to N. America. Is this correct? |

I don't know why figure manufacturers can't seem to make a period drum that even comes close to being correct in size. Black Hussar makes a nice one, but I can't think of any others. The one in these photos would certainly result in a lot of inadvertent rim shots I really like the way the painter shaded the cloth bags of the mitres. You don't often see that. |

Fifteen flags were captured at Trenton which suggests each of the three regiment had its full quota of flags. The Rall Regiment (then named von Trumback) concocted a story about recapturing its flags in South Carolina in 1779. Not sure if this reflects current scholarship, but there is some discussion about the Hessian flags here: PDF link |

"The one in these photos would certainly result in a lot of inadvertent rim shots" Didn't you know that the Rall regiment was noted for the large number of stand up comedians in it? Thanks, I'll be here all week. |
