Austrian cavalry units organisation
I have looked into all my Austrian cavalry books but am still unclear about the rank of commanders of the lower formations in a regiment of Hussars. Was a Flugel led by an Oberlieutenant and the zuegen led by an Unterlieutenant or Wachtmeister? As for the Caporalshaft there are twelve caporals in the squadron organisation according to Acerbi and Molnar in "Austrian Cavalry of the Napoleonic...etc." but the organisation seems to show sixteen sections (eight zuegen)?
I have missed something but damned if I know where!
