Preface This volume explores the uniforms, organisation and equipment of the Fusilier Regiments throughout the reign of Frederick II1 from 1740-86.2

As with the previous volumes, the following conventions have been used:

Regiments are numbered according to the system developed by Hans Bleckwenn. Prussian units have been abbreviated as follows: Cuirassier Regiment [KR], Dragoon Regiment [DR], Garrison Regiment [G], Grenadier Battalion [Gren Bn], Hussar Regiment [HR] and Infantry Regiment [IR].

Units have often been abbreviated to Zug/platoon, Kompagnie/Company [coy], Eskadron/squadron [sq], Bataillon/battalion [Bn], regiment [Regt].

Prussian rank titles and names have been preserved as far as possible. Unteroffizier/non-commissioned officer [NCO], Premier-lieutenant/first

1 Frederick II has been used rather than Friedrich II, Friedrich der Grosse, or Frederick the Great. 2 This volume will also cover the 1740s uniform of those Musketeer regiments that changed their uniform after the War of Austrian Succession and the Saxon Regiments impressed into Prussian service during the Seven Years War.

IR44 Jungkenn Fusiliers This fusilier regiment was established on 20 January 1742 at Wesel from a cadre from the IR28 that had been converted to a regiment of foot and moved to Silesia. Each of its companies received ten men from IR28 Hautcharmoy with the rest recruited in the German Reich. It had the status of a garrison regiment despite its official title of a fusilier regiment. During the Second Silesian War, only the grenadier companies joined the field army and was only part of the field army from the start of the Seven Years War. In 1806, IR44 capitulated at Hameln and was dissolved.

Promoted to Oberst (1745), Chef of IR44 (1749), GM (1751) Chef of Garrison Regiment G-IV (1759) and finally retired aged 80 shortly before he died. 109 Rudolph August von Hoffmann (1700-59) was a cadet (1714) Lt (1725). In 1735, he was convicted of a duel with a Captain of Grumbkow and was dismissed so entered Austrian service. In 1740, Frederick II gave him a company in the new IR39 (Braunschweig). Promoted to major (1744), Oberst-Lt (1753), Oberst (1757) and Chef of IR44. Shortly before the surrender of the city, he had a violent quarrel with Captain David Christian von Sydow who ordered his men to fire on Hoffmann who died on 5 September 1759 from his injuries. 110 John Grant (1710-64) who came from Scotland, was adjutant of Field Marshal Peter Lacy in Russian service and transferred to Prussian service in 1747 as a captain. Promoted to major (1754), Oberst-Lt (1758), Oberst (1758), Chef of IR44 (1760) and died in 1764. 111 Hans Christian von Britzke (1705-83) was GM (1766) and GL (1778). 112 Friedrich Wilhelm Ernst von Gaudi (1725-88) was GM (1779), Inspector of Westphalia (1785), GL (1787) and and commandant of Wesel. 113 Franz Otto von Pirch (1733-1813) was Chef of IR8 (1791-95), GM (1791) and Chef of IR22 (1795-1806).

Garrison Garrison of the fortress city of Wesel from 1742. Inherited by the Hohenzollerns in 1609 but were unable to take control of Wesel until the 1678 under the Treaty of Nijmegen. Despite being heavily fortified the Prussians evacuated the city during the Seven Years War and it was occupied by the French. Wesel was ceded to the French in 1805 under the treaty of Schönbrunn.

Canton Initially inherited the former canton of IR28 covering several districts in the western provinces until recruitment there was abandoned in 1747. Subsequently recruited in the districts surrounding Wesel.

Chapter 11 Garrison Regiments

In 1713, Frederick William I upon ascending the throne ordered all the garrison companies and battalions be established as field regiments. Their grenadiers belonged to the field army and combined into Standing Grenadier Bns [see Volume III]. In 1716, after the Pomeranian campaign Frederick William I formed five new garrison battalions from men no longer fit for field service, short in stature and age. By 1721, these had grown to regiments of two battalions. In 1725, a sixth garrison regiment was formed. In 1728, two were transformed into IR30 and IR31 fusilier regiments. In 1740, the remaining four garrison regiments were East Prussian (two regiments), one in Pomerania and one in Magdeburg. The Magdeburg Garrison Regiment von Persod was used to establish IR33 Fusilier Regiment. The Garrison Regiment G-IV was formed by the disestablishment of IR6 Guard Grenadier Regiment. The subsequent Garrison Regiments were raised by Frederick II. The junior officers were local townsmen, retired veterans with good war records who had been promoted from the ranks. They were commanded by active regimental commanders. Their main employment was to garrison the fortresses in time of war. The soldiers received lower pay and less fancy uniforms. Only Garrison Regiments G-I and G-II had flags like regular infantry regiments, the remaining had much simpler designs. Many of the regiments, especially Garrison Regiment G-VII, served as repositories for soldiers transferred as punishment. This all contributed to the decline in social status from the 1740s.

~ 174 ~

Garrison Regiment G-III von Grolmann The regiment was raised from transfers from field regiments on 9 August 1718 as three company Kolberg Garrison Regiment and was increased to five companies in 1721. In 1740, drafts from the Regiment formed IR37 and the grenadiers were used as the cadre for IR36. It was also known as the Kolberg Garrison Battalion up to 1755. In December 1756, Garrison Regiment G-III was expanded to two full battalions. Both battalions were captured in 1760 and the regiment was only re-raised in 1763 from return of prisoners from the von Schony Freikorps as a single battalion. In 1788, it formed the depot battalions of IR1 and IR19.

Garrison Pomeranian fortress of Kolberg with detachments at Anklam sconce, Peenemünde sconce and Swinemünde.

245 Sigmund von Sack (1662-1740) was Oberst (1711), commandant of Kolberg (1722), and GM (1725). 246 Georg Rudolph von Glaubitz (1673-1740) was GM (1733), GL (1740) and former Chef of IR4 (1731-40). 247 Volrath von Hellermann (1686-1756) was ennobled in 1743 and Oberst (1743). 248 Oberst Ernst Friedrich von der Heyden was the former Chef of the Berlin Land Regiment (1767).

In 1758, the regiment was part of the army of Prince Henri who tried to stop the Austrian invasion of Saxony at Pirna (6 June). By 12 August, the regiment was guarding Pirna and the fortress of Sonnenstein. On 5 September, Macguire captured the fortress of Sonnenstein without resistance. Oberst Grape surrendered with his regiment (1,442 men) which were taken as prisoners of war. In 1760, the regiment was taken prisoner at Torgau (3 Nov) and was not re-formed until 1763.
