Here is a listing of all Prussian infantry and cavalry regiments that were from East Prussia. The „record“ comments are taken from Christopher Duffy in „The Army of Frederick the Great“. I am using this information in the construction and painting of my Pomeranian Corps of Prussian troops that largely fought in the eastern theater against the Russians.
