The Pelinese Volunteer Legion (Alman: Pelinische Freiwilligenlegion) was a volunteer paramilitary unit, sponsored by the Weissersteiner Crown and the Reichswehr, which fought in the Pelinese Civil War on the side of the Pelinese Provisional Government. The unit was among the largest makeup of foreign volunteers during the Pelinese Civil War and were one of the best equipped. They were also known as the Brown Berets, due to their distinctive headgear. Commanders on the front noted that the legion were amongst the fiercest fighting forces at the side of the Provisional Government. The unit was made up of mostly volunteers from Weisserstein and Sugovia and was commanded by Weissersteiner Major Fritz Koehne.

Founded in 1978, the unit sought membership from the very small Pelinese diaspora
