KATONAI JELKÉPEK - BABUCS ZOLTÁN: Jászkun katonai jelképek a XVIII. század közepétől 1867-ig. (Egyenruhák, címerek, zászlók)

Jazygian-Cumanians were mobilised in 1805 and 1809. They took the redemption flags on both occasions. In 1848-1849 the Jazygian-Cumanian District gave 13.000 soldiers to the Hungarian army, among others two hussar regiments and two infantry battalions. During the absolutist period, in 1859, the District stationed two hussar squadrons; the 1 st at Jászberény, the 2 nd at Karcag. Their flag was inaugurated by queen Elizabeth in 1858. At that time Jazygian­Cumanian hussars served in the Imperial-Royal 12 th Hussar Regiment. In 1876 the Jazygian-Cumanian District lost its independence, as it was ranged among the counties. Cavalry and infantry formations in both the Imperial and Royal Army and the Royal Hungarian Army had obtained their rank and file from the population of the former Tripartite District, these, however, were Jazygian-Cumanian only in name. From the old symbols only the unified coat-of-arms (1746) of the District was inherited by the Imperial and Royal 13' Jazy­gian-Cumanian Hussar Regiment; it was worn as distinctive insignia (cap badge, buttonhole pin) until the end of World War I. In the interwar period the Royal Hungarian 1 st Hussar Regi­ment bore the name of 'Franz Joseph I - Jazygian-Cumanian Regiment' and preserved the Jazygian-Cumanian military traditions.
