A Grand Event!

Pull on your lederhosen, put a fresh sprig of edelweiss in your hat, grab some sauerkraut, Weisswurst, a fresh stein of beer and follow the oompah band down to the parade ground because the Bavarians are on parade! I don't think I missed too many Bavarian stereotypes there.

As promised, here is the infantry of the 4th Bavarian Division on parade.

The 7th Bavarian Infantry Brigade

The 8th Bavarian Infantry Brigade

And the whole 4 Bavarian Infantry Division


Still to come for the Bavarians is the divisional command, four gun batteries and a regiment of chevaux leger.  Hopefully these will be done by year's end.

    1. All I need now is the divisional artillery and the cavalry...maybe in December.

    1. Thanks. The machinery is slowing down now though as the collections have reached maximum storage space!

    1. Thanks Donnie...the real fruit will be when they appear on the table the first time.
