Hello folks,
Finished this Swiss officer in French service.

These regiment had the unfortunate luck of guarding the Bastille at the time of the storming of it, with 33 grenadiers, officer and other guards and staff.
in 1786 , their uniform was the traditional red of the swiss Regiments in French service with lemon yellow lapels, cuffs and white trim at the cuff sleeves and horizontal pockets.
white metal buttons.
