I've been building an 1866 VIII Federal Corps army. I've got stuck trying to find the uniforms for the HD and Baden gunners. I'm presuming blue caps and tunics and grey trousers like the line infantry, but can anyone kindly confirm?
Many thanks
From 'The Armies of 1866'
Baden artillery: Blue tunic with black cuffs and collar patches. Yellow buttons and white leather belting. Headwear dark blue field cap with black band and piping. Gun carriages greenish grey with black metal fittings.
HD artillery: Dark blue tunic with pointed cuffs and white buttons. Collar blacked piped red with one bar of white litzen. Belting was black leather. Headgear either a Prussian style pickelhaub with yellow fittings or dark blue peaked field cap with black band piped red and red crown piping.
Trousers for both were dark grey with red piping.
Hope that helps.
Thank you very much, Leman, you're a gent.
