Bavarian Jäger- Aschaffenburg 1870-1871

[Chris Boonzaier]

One of my favourite units is the 2nd Bavarian Jäger from Aschaffenburg.... so I was very happy to get this... the 10th Jäger from Aschaffenburg, it only existed fo a few short years

This is a nice 1870/71 document.

Out of curiosity, why is the 2nd Bavarian Jäger a favorite unit...?

(PS: If you ever come across an artillery 1870/71 doc - remember me...)

Hi,

Because it is only 5km away from where my wife was born :-)

Here is a rare 2nd Jäger card, I have a small collection of them and have only seen this one once....
