Hello everyone, In which battles would the French cavalry have fought in cape and overcoat?

The battle of Eylau, retreat from Moscow, the 1814 winter campaign in France for example. |

Possibly never; if the colonel thought that this clothing impedes the sword arm it would be strictly on the march. I have memories that this applied at the assault on the Alamo.See also my answer regarding shako covers and pelisses. |
