Scale 1/ 72 Brand Italeri Overview

French Light Infantry

Line infantry advanced in close order, often preceded by light infantry units like Chasseur, Tirailleurs or Voltigers. These light units harassed the enemy to disrupt their lines, or to interrupt their line of command targeting officers, drummers, and standard bearers. Even the Imperial Guard had light infantry units in its ranks.
