The "joltii gusari", called yellow hussars were located in the north-eastern Ukraine and changed their dolmans r.a. in 1760-62 into the black ones. I preferred this uniforms, but also because I am really a great fan of the Ukraine.
Look at the banner; there is written "S NAMI BOG" - "god with us"- and is a banner of the 16. cent. - but till now I couldn´t ever find any sources about the russian hussar flags. I chosed a religious one, inspirated by the orthodox iconic painting.
These look good. There was a hobby magazine called Gorget and Sash decades ago who talked about these guys, but they were very hard to find even when they were current. I can't remember if they had anytthing on the colors.
ReplyDeleteThanks, mekelnborg - I also contacted already russian guys on russian forum if they know more. What I heard is, that the hussars hadn´t regular flags like the infantry. They were composed by regions and nationalities, all immigrants in this area of Ukraine.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your regukar comments - it´s a great honour and also a pleasure for me.
