Newly joined member here, just getting into the period. I am building up a Danish force, designed to be fairly generic for use in the 9YW and the early years of the GNW and WSS. I realise there were differences over this period, but I am willing to live with them. Whilst I have gained a good idea of the look of the Danes from this and other websites and published sources, I have a couple of questions regarding the officers in the grenadier companies of the foot regiments. Specifically, did they wear grenadier caps like the other ranks, or hats like other officers? Also, did they carry spontoons or muskets? Many thanks for any information on this.
