Chris Boonzaier Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Hi, can I assume these guys are from the 3rd garde Grenadiere regt? Thanks Chris
Glenn J Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Chris, looks like single litzen on the collar - Grenadier-Regiment Nr.3 If memory serves me correctly, the Guard did not wear numbers on the helmet cover. Regards Glenn
Chris Boonzaier Posted March 3, 2016 Author Posted March 3, 2016 Hi Glenn, Thanks, I forgot they did not have numbers.
Chris Boonzaier Posted March 4, 2016 Author Posted March 4, 2016 Hi, a French MG, the barrel pointing downward.
ccj Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 I too have a hard time making out the device. I guess a French MG makes since. That's a nice photo and they're wearing litzen right? the fella on the right hurt his booger finger.
IrishGunner Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 If we could only talk to these two guys... Their stories are well worth a bottle or two of Cognac.
Chris Boonzaier Posted March 6, 2016 Author Posted March 6, 2016 The whole group could probably tell a story or two...
IrishGunner Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Well, get busy researching/writing! We want to read every detail.
