3 (Lichte) Nederlandse Belgische Brigade 1815


The 6 (Nederlandse) Huzaren Regiment was brigaded with the Regiment Lichte Dragonders Nr. 5. The Brigade commander was Majoor-Generaal Jean Baptiste, Baron van Merlen. His 3 (Lichte) Nederlandse-Belgische Brigade formed part of the 2e Nederlandse Cavalerie Divisie.

The figures are by Perry, painted for me by Leuthen Studios.


Baron van Merlen is shown with his ADC, Adjutant-Kapitaan J. P. de Bellefroid.



The interesting blanket design of ADC de Bellefroid relies heavily on the Website: Les Uniformes pendant la campagne des Cent Jours:
