 Reference - Étienne Maurice Gérard
He distinguished himself at the battles of battle of Austerlitz and battle of Jena, and was made general of brigade in November 1806, and for his conduct in the battle of Wagram he was created a baron.
In the Spanish campaign of 1810 and 1811 he gained special distinction at the battle of Fuentes dOnor, and in the expedition to Russia he was present at Battle of Smolensk (1812) and battle of Valutino, and displayed such bravery and ability in the battle of Borodino that he was made general of division.
In this capacity Gerard took a brilliant part in the battle of Ligny, and on the morning of June 18 he was foremost in advising Emmanuel Grouchy to march to the sound of the guns.
