Jäger-Bataillon Nr.12 Waffenrock
 
Kgl. Sächs. 1. Jäger-Bataillon Nr.12 Freiburg i.S. XII Armee - Korps Mannschaften Waffenrock. The Waffenrock is a dunkelgrun (dark green) high-quality doe-skin wool with black cloth collar and Saxon cuffs. The tunic is piped in red along the collar, cuffs, and front opening as well as the rear skirts. The shoulders carry "Swallow's Nests" which signify a bandsman. The shoulder straps are unique to the Sachsen (Saxon) Jäger being dark green with red piping and a Jäger horn.
A view of the collar and shoulder straps. The "Swallow's Nests" and Sachsen Jäger shoulder straps are clearly shown in this photograph. The Tresse on the "Swallow's Nests" is silver sewn to a green wool backing. The insignia is held onto the shoulder with corresponding "hook & eye" on the shoulder seam. The cyphers on the privately-purchased shoulders straps are cut from fine felt and separately sewn on with hand-embroidered details. Note the squared top unique to Sachsen shoulder straps.
