Deruelle Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Hi everybody Hello everyone I am planning to write a book about the Saxon officers of the 13th chasseur battalion and its reserve during the Great War. The book will consist of three parts. The first will deal with the purely historical aspect of the battalion (from its creation in 1809 to 1914), with a particular focus on the 14-18 war. The second part will deal with the orders of knighthood and medals received by the officers. The third and final part deals with uniformology. I'm looking for photos (in very high resolution, minimum 300 dpi) of officers from these units. I'm also looking for photos of uniform parts before and during the war. The names of those who have helped me will be cited in the book. Some collectors have kindly lent me photos from their collections. I would like to thank them for this. Thank you in advance for your help. I've left my e-mail address : cd.deruelle@wanadoo.fr Christophe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Huxley Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I'm looking forward to this book already. Have you read the book "Fighting the Kaisers War The Saxons in Flanders 1914/18"? It may be worth your while getting in touch with the author Andrew Lucas as I am sure he will have a lot of information that would help in your endeavour.

I have those books and I well know Andrew and Jürgen. Thanks. The most difficult is about iconogrphy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
