Info request - Brandenburgers

[valkyrie]

I am sculpting and painting a scale model of Oberstleutnant Friedrich Wilhelm Heinz. In 1940 he commanded I. Bataillons/Lehrregiment z.b.V. 800 Brandenburg in 1940 and in 1943 he commanded 4. Jägerregiments „Brandenburg.“ I haven't a clue what uniform peculiarities with respect to collar litzen and epaulette backing to include. I have seen reference to the Brandenburgers being a Jaeger unit and that the arm of service colour would therefore be green.

Can anyone assist?

Thanks in advance.

Dear Collin. Did you get any further on this ?

I finished the model with help from FW Heinz's son Michael. You can see it here.

I am not a German uniform authority. You will see I went with infantry white facings. Hope that helps.
