Hessian Fusilier Regiment Von Lossberg, American Revolutionary War

The origins of this Regiment date back to 1683. 


The uniform had orange lapels, cuffs, and turnbacks. The cloth backing on the Fusilier miters was black; somewhat curiously, the backing of the Grenadier miters of this regiment were orange. 

The buttons and metal on the miters were brass. 

These are Brigade Games figures with a flag by Flags of War. 

The Regiment fought at Long Island, White Plains, and Fort Washington; the bulk of the Regiment was captured at Trenton, but contingents fought at Brandywine Creek and Monmouth Courthouse. 

The regiment was renamed Alt Lossberg and became a Musketeer regiment in 1782.
