| The Grand Duchy of Hesse Darmstat |
Hesse Darmstat Infantry 1806-1814 The infantry of Hesse Darmstat was organised into three 'brigades' which were the equivalent of regiments in other armies. These brigades consisted of two musketeer and one fusilier (light) battalion. Each of the two musketeer battalions within the brigade was issued with two standards measuring 130cm x 130cm. All of the infantry flags were of a similar design. All flags of the Lieb-Garde brigade had a white field with no crosses. The first flag of the first battalions in both the Leib and Erbprinz brigades had a white field with the corners only divided black and the regimental colour. The other three flags in each case had the complete field in black and the corners in the regimental colour. 1806-1814 Pattern, from top to bottom: 1st Musketeer Battalion Lieb-Garde Brigade 2nd Musketeer Battalion Lieb-Garde Brigade 1st Musketeer Battalion Erbprinz Brigade 2nd Musketeer Battalion Erbprinz Brigade 1st Musketeer Battalion Lieb Brigade 2nd Musketeer Battalion Lieb Brigade |
