Dannemois Posted 11 July , 2008 Author Share Posted 11 July , 2008 I think they are pretty good. Do you know better ones? Unfortunatela I can´t poste any photos here. I won´t take an URL code to do that, Is there another way? I can't join in the debate, no knowledge of uniforms and the like so I will leave you to it. This next one is very similar to one posted earlier and identified as 'German WW1 Infantry white farb garde' but there is a slight difference [at least to my untrained eye] the stitching around crown motif is coloured pink and there is no white piping, just plain grey cloth Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eparges Posted 11 July , 2008 Share Posted 11 July , 2008 M07/10 fieldgrey. Royal saxon 7th infantry regiment "Prince Johann Georg", N° 106 I cannot see whether the wool is fieldgrey (feldgrau), in which case it would be a M1914, or grey (Steingrau), than Mantelklappe M1907..

eparges Posted 12 July , 2008 Share Posted 12 July , 2008 addition to post 55 (F.A.R.): the black tread could indicate reinforcing for brass cyphers, in which case it would be a strap for a Reserve F.A 5 (I don't see any remains of stitching of numbers)....see any small holes where the numbers could have been (prongs pushed through the fabric ?)

eparges Posted 13 July , 2008 Share Posted 13 July , 2008 Can you please educate me; does the above mean it could be all three? Hi Roy, yes, that's what it means: especially with the M15, it's often not possible to tell if active, reserve or landwehr... the last two one: * M1915 I.R. 452 * M1914 R.I.R. 228, Pio Komp. 228 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannemois Posted 17 July , 2008 Author Share Posted 17 July , 2008 Look at post 61 and 62 Hi Andreas Are you are saying this as been done already? If so I do apologise, its been a bit of an ordeal keeping track of things. Is there an easy way to find post 61 & 62 so I can view them?

eparges Posted 17 July , 2008 Share Posted 17 July , 2008 easy, scroll up (this is post 70) What I guess he's trying to say, is that fieldgrey klappen with just a number are more than likely to be M1914 infantry, the number denotes the regiment (could in this case be bavarian IR or RIR as well..). When they have a bomb, field artillerie, crossed shells Fussartillerie etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prussian Posted 18 July , 2008 Share Posted 18 July , 2008 Yes, mates. That is what I wanted to say. Thanx an cheers from Germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannemois Posted 18 July , 2008 Author Share Posted 18 July , 2008 Yes, mates. That is what I wanted to say. Thanx an cheers from Germany Okay, thanks for that. I guess that the remaining ones left on grey and numbered[73, 103, 164, 206 and 243] all fall into that category. Which would leave me with this last one to identify. May I take this opportunity to thank each and everyone of you who have contributed to this topic, it really is appreciated.
