Folks, what's the current best assessment on headgear worn by Austrian Grenzers in 1805. I have uniform information that some battalions wore white coats others brown and it's been suggested to me that those in white should be wearing shakos and those in brown the klobuk, which sort of makes sense, but past reading has lead me to believe this is an area where opinion is strong and information is a bit weak so does anyone know of any documentary evidence to back up a specific interpretation.
