This tunic is from the royal Saxon 2. field artillery regiment n.28, the same of the previous one. It was in the XII army corps and garrisoned in Bautzen.
Interestingly, the cypher of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia was dropped in 1917 along with the cyphers of all "enemy" rulers.
Before the war and until 1917 this uniform had green shoulder straps with the cyper of the russian tzar, while after 1917 it wore the flaming bomb with the number 28.

I hope I'm not boring you, but today we're featuring yet another artillery regiment:
Here is a prussian Feld Artillery Regiment n. 44 (Triersches Feldartillerie Regiment) tunic.
Noteworthy is the Gun Layers insignia sewn above the left sleeve, introduced with AKO on April 12, 1888.
The insignia consists of a three-flame grenade embroidered in yellow thread on a dark blue cloth patch and sewn just above the cuff.

The collar of this Waffenrock is too high; it's clearly a privately tailored version.

Still on the subject of artillery, today I'll show you one of my favorite jackets.
It's a one-year volunteer tunic from the prussian 1th Garde Feldartillerie Regiment.
The red three-flame grenade on the white shoulders identifies it as a horse drawn battery (Fahr Abteilung).
I love a lot the peculiar patterned NCO lace on the collar. Really cool.

To continue on the topic here is a greatcoat model 1894 from the same old owner: an one-year volunteer of the mounted battery of the 1th Guards Field Artillery Regiment.
I really love the light shade of grey of these greatcoats.
Believe me, it was not easy to find this set.
