Hello,
thank you so much!
A quick question, what does the term "redlegs"? :oops:

Sorry, I don't understand (my language is French) :-k
 
Red leg=> jambe rouge!
Because of the red stripe on the uniform trouser's side for artillery personal.
;-)

I'm stupid, sorry. ](*,)

I didn't think the relationship with the artillery's pants :oops: .

There are some wonderful books on the Belgian artillery written by Mr. LOTHAIRE, retired colonel.

Soon (very soon) a book which talk about artillery of the "Force Publique" will be print :wink:
