[Westfront]

Thank you Gents and indeed excellent contribution about the Einjährig Freiwiliger.

I pondered if the use of Pionier comes from the fact that Eisenbahn are essentially wearing the uniform of a Garde Pionier?

Thank you. Mike Kelso brought up a very good question in email about what people were called if they were in a guard unit. It seems to me that if you were in the Garde Dragoons for instance your title would be: Dragoner. love to hear more opinions.

Great helmets and an excellent post and thread. I have learned a great deal! Very nice as well to have added another Unit marking to our list.

Hi Gents,

An excellent helmet from the II/ER2, which was a mixed bataillon: 5 and 6. companies were prussian, 7. and 8. were saxon.
