What is the historical correct placement of the drummers in a Prussian Battailon under FtG? And is the highest ranking officer on foot always on the right side of it or is he placed in the center? |

According to this diagram, the officers are sprinkled behind the line and the drummers at each end. Note I'm referring to the battalion in firing line. link |

Thank you for the Information. I had conflicting sources about the drummers, and I guess I will place my drummer miniatures a little further back in line with the NCOs. cheers |
