Uniforms Of Spanish Units At Talavera
(Spanish Text by José Manuel Rodríguez Gómez, Illustrations by Jose Maria Bueno)Guard Cavalry, Carabiniers
Here is the uniform of the light Carabineros squadrons, which was similar to the cazadores de caballería. A French model shako as headgear, adorned with gold braid. The jacket is a model similar to the cazadores', with frogs from side to side. I think the original picture has two colour failures. The first, the uniform shade of blue, which I think should be the royal blue of the Royal Guard. The second, a white stripe on the breeches, which I think should be red.
