Hi everyone
I'm after some info on French cavalry uniforms and flags. A while ago, I purchased some painted Dixon's cavalry with grey coats and red cuffs, the saddle cloth is red with a yellow trim. On the base the previous owner has written french line cavalry. The only info I have on French cavalry at the mo is the table in 'from Pike to Shot' and this doesn't list many regiments. Is there an online source for info on French Cavalry?
I also have a sheet of flags but am unable to identify which regts they belong to. They've got the gold sun in splender and one has a white background, one red and the other a blue background.
Funny thing is that the colours on the painted figures are right for the Heyden/Ittersum/Aughrim Dutch cavalry regt!
Any help greatly appreciated!
Many thanks
Simon
