Danish Foot Regiment Funen/Fynske

It was one of the oldest regiments in the Danish army and could trace its history back to 1614 when it was raised under the name Fynske Fenle Knægte af Jydske Regiment Landsfolk.

The Danes were the first to stop using pike and relied on firepower alone.

Cheers guys!!!

The project should move along at pace now, with two French brigades currently being painted. The Danish foot guards are also done, but I don't currently have the flags to display them.

Hi Iain
Do you recall years ago you did me the English flags with Charles II sigil? You should release that in this range, for the English Regiment that went over in 1672 to fight for the French.



And the early Coldstream Guards flags:
