Is anyone able to tell me which officers are represented by the AB Prussian Staff Set 2 in the picture below? Are any of them generals, or are they all ADCs? Info about Napoleonic unit colors is usually easy to find, but seems to be much less so for mounted officers.

I would also be interested in seeing what the (AB-PR29) Prussian ADC Officer looks like painted up, if anyone has done one.

Guessing I would say figure #1 on the left is an ADC. The last two on the right also look like ADCs.

Since 15 August 1810, Prussian adjudants hat green collars and cuffs. Those of the cavalry a white uniform coat, those of the infantry a blue one.

But there were also regimental officers who were temporarily attached to a staff, performing the duties of an adjudant there. They continued to wear their regimental uniform.

Please use them as anything you want ..
The ones in hats can be ADCs, those in shakos can be regimental officers attached to Staff, or whatever. It's up to you. I didn't make any of them as named personalities.

Agree with Anthony
Left definitely a Hussar officer
Right a Fusilier Battalion Commander
2nd from right a Dragoon or even a Landwehr cavalry officer
