French Infantry Regiments and the Colonels who Led Them: 1791 to 1815

Part I: 1er - 10e Regiments

By Tony Broughton, FINS

The peacetime establishment of the French Infantry consisted of the following:

Eighty-two regiments of the line (each regiment having two battalions consisting of nine companies with one
company being a Grenadier company): 85,407 men
Twelve foreign regiments: 12,848 men
One regiment of Swiss Garde: 2,330 men
Eleven Swiss regiments: 11,429 men.
12 Battalions of Infanterie Leger (each with eight Companies): 5,414 men
Grand Total: 117,428 men

In 1791, the old French regiments receive a regimental number instead of a title. The number of regiments was
also increased to One hundred and eleven Regiments. The next major change occurred in 1793(by decree of 21st
February) when demi-brigade de bataille were formed. The formation of these new demi-brigades was one
regular infantry battalion and two volunteer battalions. This meant that the old regiments were split up to form
demi-brigades de bataille.

Demi-brigades d'Infanterie de Ligne were formed in 1796 (by the decree of 1 February) from demi-brigades de
bataille these gave a much larger formation. The 238 demi-brigades de bataille became 110 demi-brigade
d'Infanterie de Ligne. In 1803, the demi-brigades became the regiments that we are familiar with, each regiment
having three battalions.

The next major change occurred in 1808 (by decree of 18 February) when the strength of the regiments was
raised from three battalions to five, with four in the field and one Depot battalion. Each battalion in the field was
to comprise of six companies, one Grenadier, one Voltigeur and four Fusilier companies. The Depot battalion
was to comprise four companies.

With war looming between France and the major powers in Europe the following new armies were created:

Armee du Nord - created on the 14th December 1791, divided into the Armee du Nord and the Armee des
Ardennes on the 1st October 1792.
Armee du Centre - created 14th December 1791, on the 1st October 1792 it became the Armee de la Moselle
Armee des Vosages - created 1st October 1792.
Armee du Midi - created 13th April 1792, divided into the Armee des Alpes and the Armee des Pyrenees on the
1st October 1792. The Armee des Alpes was subsequently divided to form the Armee de Savoie and the Armee
d'Italie on the 1st November 1792.
Armee des l'Interior - created 4th September 1792

From these early days the regiments and commanders that we are familiar with were formed, resulting in the
Emperor Napoleons famous Grande Armee.
