The Crimean War 1853-1856: Russian Hussars Command
(303013833)
The Russian cavalry force was the largest in Europe, totalling over sixty regiments organised into twenty cavalry divisions. The light cavalry consisted of hussars and lancers or uhlans. Much as with the infantry, the cavalry training consisted of wheels and manoeuvres designed for the parade ground with little tactical application.
Russian hussars wore shakos with a black top, peak and with a brass front plate, but the main body of the headgear was coloured differently for each regiment. Similarly, all wore a pelisse that was trimmed with fur, but the colour of each varied between regiments. For the majority of the campaign Russian hussars wore a grey oilskin cover to protect their shako and a grey greatcoat over their bright uniforms.
This pack contains three mounted command figures, cast in metal.
