Description

A Waterloo Medal, in silver, full size, naming officially impressed on the rim ERNST LUTTERMAN, 1st REG. HUSSARS, K.G.L., original steel clip and large iron ring, replacement ribbon, light contact marks, several edge bruises, bright, in extremely fine condition.

Footnote: Ernest Luttermann is on the Waterloo Medal Roll in the 1st Regiment of Hussars of the King’s German Legion.

At the Battle of Waterloo, the 1st Hussars of the King’s German Legion served in Vivian’s 6th Cavalry Brigade and were held in reserve for most of the day. In the battle’s final phase, they were unleashed during Wellington’s general advance, helping to pursue and rout retreating French forces after the collapse of Napoleon’s Imperial Guard. Their disciplined charge contributed to the decisive Allied victory and cemented the KGL’s reputation as an elite force.
