This is a sister website to GermanColonialUniforms.co.uk , studying various aspects and uniform details of the Imperial and earlier 19th Century German Armies. Before going into the articles below, please take a look at my recent books studying the histories and uniforms of the Imperial German Infantry and Cavalry Regiments and also of the Marine Infantry or Seebataillone.
 

THE GERMAN MARINE INFANTRY 1849-1919

For the first time in the English language, the organisation, history and uniforms of the Seebataillone, the Imperial German Marine Infantry are described, illustrated and photographed in this book.

This 180 page full colour book covers all aspects of the Marine Infantry from their formation, their insignia, overseas deployments, weapons and standards.

It is richly illustrated with illustrations, period photographs and  dozens of photographs of uniforms and headdress from modern collections including the Helmuth Weitze Auction House.
