Chapter 3 Brandenburg Regiments

Brandenburg lay between the Elbe and Oder Rivers which were the major north-south commercial arteries into central Germany.

Map 3: The Province of Brandenburg (1640-1806).

Frederick II rated his Brandenburg Regiments very highly. He commented after Zorndorf, “I owe my salvation to these regiments [IR18 and IR23] and General Seydlitz. I could do anything with commanders and troops like these.”111 Brandenburg comprised Altmark, Kurmark and Neumark.

IR1 von Winterfeldt On 21 July 1615, Captain Wilhelm von Kalckumb raised the Märkische Leib Kompagnie and on 1 June 1641, the Preussisch Leib-Kompagnie was raised. In 1657, these were merged with four newly raised companies to become the Leib-Garde Regiment under the command of Oberst von Pöllnitz. By 1688, it had 30 companies. In 1702, 5 companies were transferred to IR18. In 1707, 10 companies were transferred to IR5 and renamed Fusilier-Garde Regiment. In 1713, the regiment lost its Garde status and henceforth known by their Chef. Also 4 companies were transferred to IR23 and 1 company to IR24. This regiment had a very high reputation and Frederick II said at Hochkirch, “It’s true, I always considered the Winterfeldt Regiment was brave but today it has surpassed all my expectations. I shall never forget it.”114 From 1768, it ranked after the Garde regardless of the seniority of the Chef. In 1806, it was part of Blücher’s Corps.

Chapter 11 Musketeer Uniforms

Frederick William I established an annual requirement for uniforms. In 1713, the Royal Wool Factory [Konigliches Lagerhaus] managed by private entrepreneurs was founded in Berlin employing over 5,000 workers and over 25,000 outworkers. This was nearly half the civilian inhabitants of Berlin. It produced and stored the uniforms garrisoned in Berlin plus the production of the uniforms of officer of all regiments and was the largest cloth producer in Germany. Regiments outside Brandenburg obtained the uniforms for their NCOs, other ranks and musicians from designated manufacturers.412 Subsequent monarchs supported the foundation of factories in Prussia to guarantee the production of high quality material for the army and provide revenue from exports. The quality of the uniforms was higher than those of their neighbouring states. For decades, the Russian army was uniformed in Prussian cloth.

The typical style of the Prussian uniform developed under Frederick William I between 1725 and 1735. The uniforms of IR2, IR9, IR11, IR14, IR19, IR25 and IR26 remained essentially unchanged from this time. Only IR17 changed their facing colours from red to white.413 Frederick II retained the infantry uniforms of his father. Apart from IR15, the only musketeer regiment to receive the new style uniform were IR7, the converted “old” fusilier regiments (IR28, IR31 and IR32) and the “new” Musketeer Regiments (IR34 and IR50).

Flag covers During a march the flags were rolled around the flagpole and encased under a wax canvas cover. Flags were unrolled when there was a march-past, marching through a town or at the beginning of the battle. The flag cover was worn either around the waist or as a bandolier. These wax canvas covers were black although Menzel shows an officer cadet of IR1 von Winterfeldt with a red cover.
