hunyadi Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 This is a unique tunic that I just got off eban - it appears to be WWI era corderouy (spelling?) with the traditional single shoulder chord and knot. But I just cant place the facing color with anything? What unit had "electric green"?

hunyadi Posted June 16, 2011 Author Posted June 16, 2011 That is an AMAZING site - tried to find something like that for ages - many many thanks! It looks like IR 46 was only in service till 1914? Or am I reading that wrong?

There is lots of information but it is a bit harder to use. Robert Austro-Hungarian Land Forces 1848-1918. Edited June 16, 2011 by Robert Smith
