There is much contradictory information on what the Brunswick Oëls infantry wore in the Peninsula. Most sources agree that they wore green jacket with blue facings, but I can not find any contemporary source that shows the front of their jacket. Did the jackets have horizontal black braids like the 1815 uniforms have? Unfortunately the few sources I have skirted the question by only showing the back of the jack.
I found the below image of two reenactors, but they only confuse the matter with one showing braid the other does not.
Thanks!

Further to previous answers, there appears to be a common misconception among British researchers, that all three of the detached companies that served in the 4th and 5th Divisions wore this green uniform and carried rifles instead of muskets. In fact, only the company serving in the 4th Division, which was descended from the Scharfschutzen (sharpshooter) companies of the 1809 "Black Horde", had these attributes and the two companies in the 5th Division wore the standard black uniform and carried muskets.
