Graf Rudnicki Uhlanen








I left the picture with the hand in it deliberately as it gives a sense of scale and size.

You have seen the earlier Uhlanen I posted here the other day – with red facings. This is their sister unit and had blue facings.

The Pulk was created early in 1745 from a unit of Tatar Guards of the Principality of Kiev. The two units appear to have always operated together and those campaign details I posted for Renard apply equally to this this unit.

The figures are from Eureka and closely model the Bosniak regiment in Prussian service. Those Bosniaks were recruited in Poland as well.
