Saxon Senior NCOs "Crusher" Schirmmütze
 
 
Eigentumsstück (private purchase) Schirmmütze (visor cap) "Crusher" pattern from Kgl. Sächs. Feld-Artillerie-Regt. (saxon Artillery Regiments). Unlike the other contingents of the German empire who wore Dunkelblau Waffenrock with black collar and cuffs for Feld-Artillerie, Sachsen (in typical fashion) did not conform, and wore dunkelgrün Waffenrocks with red collar and cuffs.
