Spaniard cockade

The time-honoured Spaniard cockade was red, like the Austrian one. The Red-and-yellow flag was not the army flag and badge until 1843. Perhaps Joseph I's Spaniard collaborationist army used a red-and-yellow-and-red cockade in the Peninsular War (1808-14), but the Spaniard units that put on fight to Napoleon's army kept on using the traditional red cockade as field badge, edged in white in the case of the 6 Swiss foot regiments on Spaniard payroll. Early in the 18th century the Dutch soldiers in Spaniard pay had used the red cockade along with a green twig. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.142.175.22 (talk) 09:49, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, the red cockade was used up to c.1871.

Great Britain?

If we're talking modern times, why not "United Kingdom"? Northern Ireland is part of the UK, but not part of GB. 86.149.0.189 (talk) 23:32, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for biringing an attention to the fact that the whole article was unreferenced. In fact it was in this state since as early as 2006. I deleted the whole text. I don't want to even start checking what kind of historical errors it may contain. If you are a fan of the subject, do it correctly. Referencing is the most fundamental policy of English wikipedia, and your irony about my vigilance is gravely misplaced; obviously I was not vigilant enough. - üser:Altenmann >t 02:49, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would tend to agree. It is much easier compiling a list from trusted sources than to fact-check every item of an usubstantiated one. Just from a cursory glance I can see that the listing for the French Napoleonic army is incorrect: The revolutionary insurrectionists used the traditional red-blue cockade of Paris; later this was put on top of the Royalist white cockade on the existing army uniforms to create a blue-red-white tricolor (not the same as the 1794 flag). During the 1814 restoration the soldiers simply removed the blue and red part to revert back to royalist colors. You can see this easily by a simple image search for French Napoleonic shakos; however for a temporary proof you may look here or here. There is a complete listing of cocades from the 1792-1815 period in the much respected Haythornethwaite's Napoleonic Sourcebook, which I unfortunately have in storage and not at hand.

Now a stub

Wow, someone just reduced this entire article to less than a stub and removed a reference as well.*Trekker (talk) 09:46, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

EDIT: I have now put the article back with sources. Not that hard.*Trekker (talk) 19:55, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
