First Legion's NAP0422 2nd Dutch "Red" Lancers of the Imperial Guard Trooper with Lance #1
First Legion presents the 2nd Lancers of the Imperial Guard, the legendary Red Lancers! Raised in 1810, the Dutchmen rode for Napoleon after the French annexation of Holland, the regiment served with distinction during all campaigns between 1812 and 1815. In 1812 the regiment was nearly wiped out during the Russian Campaign; the replacements were primarily Frenchmen and being one of the few original Dutch by 1815 was a source of great pride. This trooper figure wears the striking red uniform, carries the fearsome lance, and serves at the pleasure of the superb Colonel Edouard Colbert. The Red Lancers of the Guard served the Emperor with great distinction in Russia, Saxony, the low countries, and the 100 days.
