Correct. The idea was to have a unit comprised mostly of recruits from Zeeland, since these would be immune to the Zeeland fevers. from what I understand, the Zeeuws Legioen would include the 5th Infantry Regiment and other corps stationed there. In reality -as always- the lack of recruits meant the Legion included recruits from outside Zeeland, and just like the British troops in the Walcheren Expedition, the Zeeuws Legioen also fell victim to the Zeeland fevers. In the four years that Lodewijk reigned, he raised, amalgated and disbanded a myriad of units and a like number of uniform changes.
