Historical Notes

Light cavalry, including units of the King’s German Legion within the Third Brigade under Major General Sir W. Dornberg, took part in the 1815 Battle of Waterloo where Napoleon was finally defeated. The uniforms and equipment represented here reflect that period, with the 1812 shako and contemporary cavalry arms faithfully depicted for an accurate late-Napoleonic appearance.
