Could someone point me to a good reference for the uniforms of the West Indian Regiment c1810 to 1815 please. Particularly a rear view as the back of the coatee is a bit of a mystery.

Many Thanks

As to rear of the coat, "The 1802 regulations described the jacket as short tailed, without turnbacks but 'cut to slope of behind',…" Plate 46. Wellington's Army, Hamilton Smith.
The three references I used for the 1st and 5th WI regiments are contained in my blog for your perusal.
