Hello everybody, let me short introduce myself. I´am interested in Pickelhaubes, Visor Caps , and Krätzchen since a few years but I´am still beginner.

I live near Freiburg/Germany so I am collecting everything about the 113Regiment and Badische Schoulder Boards and Kokardes.

Best regards

Mike

A relative of mine from Freiburg im Breisgau served with 9. Badisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 170. Alas, no pictures of his pickelhaube

Hello,
I, will answer in German.

Das ist sehr interessant mit Ihrem Verwandten. Einer meiner Vorfahren war im 113 Regiment aus Freiburg. Leider existieren kaum Dokument mehr über seine Dienstzeit.
Das 113 Regiment hat am 01.04.1897 das IV. Bat. abgegeben, zur Bildung des 170 Regimentes in denen Ihr Verwandter diente. Das 170 war bei Offenburg stationiert.

Best regards

Hello Mike,

Welcome to the forum, it's no problem to post here in English just use an online translator they are getting better and only a few words get lost.

I'm very familier with Freiburg, my wife worked there for LITEF several years ago and we have spent many times enjoying the Hochschwarzwald (y)

Mfg John Josef
