Uhlans advancing

Uhlans (in Polish: "Ulan"; "Ulan" in German) were Polish light cavalry armed with lances, sabres and pistols. The title was later used by lancer regiments in the Russian, Prussian, and Austrian armies, Uhlans typically wore a double-breasted jacket (kurta) with a colored panel (plastron) at the front, a colored sash, and a square-topped Polish lancer cap (czapka) also spelt 'czapka,' chapska and schapska. This cap or cavalry helmet was derived from a traditional design of Polish cap, made more formal and stylized for military use.
