Biography:
Lancers of the Guard (Dutch Squadron) represents a specific unit within the Napoleonic Grande Armée. This squadron consisted of Dutch lancers incorporated into Napoleon's prestigious Imperial Guard. Its formation stemmed from the annexation of the Kingdom of Holland into the French Empire in 1810.

These Dutch lancers, carefully selected for their horsemanship and bearing, served alongside French and other European soldiers within the Guard. They participated in key campaigns, including the disastrous invasion of Russia in 1812. The Dutch contingent suffered heavy losses, mirroring the overall devastation of Napoleon's forces.

While not a single individual, "Lancers of the Guard (Dutch Squadron)" symbolizes the collective experiences of these Dutch soldiers. Their presence highlights the international scope of Napoleon's army and the impact of French imperial expansion on the Netherlands. Their story is one of service, sacrifice, and participation in some of the most significant battles of the Napoleonic era.
