League Of Augsburg - Fighting Talk

In 1803 the Danish king revoked a deal with the people from Lærdal, that exempted the men from military service as long as they maintained the roads over the mountains. This the Lærdølingene didn't like so the rebelled, in the end the leaders ended up executed. 5 years later Lærdalske lette infanterikompani marched 320km over the mountains in winter to get to the Swedish border, they took part in the battle of Trangen, a glorious victory over the Swedes.

Nice! Are those the same who later(1809-12?) wore some kind of Polish looking Headdress?

They got shakoes in 1812, the shakoes might look a little like some of the polish shakoes, as they flared a little at the top, so not as conical as the later French shakoes.

Yes, You are right...don't even remember where I saw those styles of Head dress with the Danish Light/Jaeger Corps...

Just found that pdf here which helped me to understand

It's a good little document, and while it does cover Norway, it doesn't really cover Norwegian uniforms much except for grenadiers headgear.
And even in Norwegian it's hard finding info.

Ok, found the Bugger that eluded me...
