Does anyone know, or would like to make a guess, what his headgear is?


Done, many thanks. BAA is becoming an important archive - the more the merrier!

It is a forage cap of regimental pattern, the Major was subsequently buried at Heidelberg, with a handsome memorial appropriate to an officer of field rank, sadly, a taste of things to come just a dozen years later.
