Zieten Hussars

"The Zieten Hussars,[nb 2] (German: Husaren-Regiment "von Zieten"), last designation: "Hussars Regiment ´von Zieten´ (Brandenburg) No. 3" (Husaren-Regiment von Zieten (Brandenburgisches) Nr. 3), was a hussar regiment of the Prussian Army and later the Imperial German Army,[nb 3] founded in 1730 and named after its first Colonel, Hans Joachim von Zieten.

Frederick the Great created it as the 2nd Hussar Regiment (H2), and in 1743 it adopted the distinctive tiger-skin pelisse for their parade uniforms, with company officers wearing fur caps with heron feathers and field officers using an eagles´s wing. During the 1806 campaign of the War of the Fourth Coalition, the regiment was known as von Rudorff Hussar regiment, soon renamed Life Hussar Regiment von Rudorff (No.2) (German: No.2 Leib-Husaren von Rudorff)." - (en.wikipedia.org 30.01.2020)
