I'm looking for any info on Middle Guard uniforms at Waterloo, Some acounts say that they had a real mix and rarely match uniform, due to the haste they were assembled. And although not the most reliable of sources i've seen a couple of paintings of the Middle Guard looking more like the Old Guard!
Its difficult to know which account to belive,even eyewitness accounts differ (nothing new there).
Also theres not much info on what happened to the Old Guard Chasseurs in the second or reserve line, after the Middle Guard's attack failed.I 've read that Cambronne was captured shortly after this but did the Grognards run for it or die in their squares? One account says the 11/3 Grenadiers never broke and ended up at La Belle Alliance, all be it in a "tiny triangle two ranks deep" But as for the 3 units of Chasseurs?
As always any input would be great ,Thanks
