Re: Observation Division Adriatic 1809

Mr. Camillo,
As noted in vol. II of Thunder on the Danube, p. 352:
3rd & 4th Battalions, 6th French Line Inf Regt (1,454)
3rd & 4th Battalions, 14th French LIGHT Inf Regt (1,352)
4th Battalion, 101st French Line Inf Regt (681)
3rd Battalion, Regiment Tour d'Auvergne (840)
4th Battalion, Corsican Chasseurs (?)
1st & 2nd Battalions, 1st Neapolitan Light Inf Regt (983)
one squadron, 1st Neapolitan Chasseur a cheval (265)

Although his order of battle had changed by late summer, the following may be of interest:
