Title: Peninsular Spanish Hussars dressed in British 10th Hussar uniform?
Post by: olicana on 26 June 2021, 08:20:51 PM

Please, can someone remind me of the name of the Spanish hussars that were uniformed in exactly the same manner as British 10th Hussars. I have it in a book (?) somewhere but, I can't remember which.

I'm going to paint British 10th and want to make it duel purpose unit with interchangeable magnetic name plates - hussars don't carry standards so this makes perfect sense as a cost saver - a neat little double bubble unit!

Thanks in advance....

It was the Húsares de Almansa

The British colonel bought the same British uniforms as the 10th hussars.
