lifeguard
The Life Guards and Royal Horse Guards wore the same basic uniform as the rest of the British heavy cavalry, with the main distinctive element being the helmet with woollen crest. This was only introduced in 1814, placing this set very firmly in the 1815 Waterloo campaign and nowhere else. This helmet and all other elements of the uniform are accurately modelled here, and the sword is also correct. Officially the officer should have a sword with half-basket hilt rather than the standard issue he carries here, but officers were allowed considerable descretion in their uniform and weapons.
