    Dragoon Officer Kleiner Rock wrong shoulder boards?


    Recommended Posts

    I just bought this today. I believe the shoulder boards are DR 19 (?) which would not be correct for a dragoon jacket the black piping. According to references I have on hand, black edging with nickel buttons would be worn by officers in Dragoon Rgts 6, 18, or 22. I would like to ask if this is correct please before restoring the uniform or removing the shoulder boards.  Thank you for your time.

    Don't touch a thing!  It is a perfect  officer's  1897 pattern Litewka for DR 19.  It is not a 1915 pattern Klienerrock...

    Okay, thank you. This is why I ask and do not always trust the references or myself. That makes everything much easier. I hope it is named. It was on auction with a very brief description.

    Thank you, I nrmally collect WWII era uniforms. This will be used in forthcoming book on WWII era German dress unforms to show the evolution of the idea and types of uniforms used in semi-formal and casual occasions.
