The roundy yoke is a bit of cavalry armour (or derived from it, anyway - it's a gorget), and the horn suggests scouts, huntsmen or the postal service.

I believe This belt plate and gorget are still in the National Museum, rare pieces indeed I would say.
Paul O'Farrell said:
This is a nice piece on the Legion Irlandaise, militaryheritage.com/irish.htm
Mike said:
The story goes that the King of France found the Irish brigade very unruly with their drinking and fighting. He complained to their commanding office by saying " the Irish troops are more troublesome than the rest of the French army"
Mike said:
The reply from the commanding office was " yes your majesty, the enemy say the same"
