Hello I can help with some identifications : The zouave officers on the 3rd photo are (from left to right) Lieutenant Haricot, capitaine Chazotte and sous Lieutenant Besson (http://military-photos.com/zouavegarde.htm) The colonel of the staff in the back center of the dragon and lancier guard photo is colonel Pajol, chief of staff of the gard cavalery division (http://military-photos.com/pajol1.htm) Bye

Thanks Vissarion. I knew about Colonel Pajol and the brave Captain Chazotte, but not about the other two. Chazotte was a warrior! Chazotte served in the Guard Zouaves from 1855 to 1865, and fought in the Crimean War (wounded twice) and Franco-Austrian War (wounded at Magenta). He was promoted to Chef de bataillon in 1865 and transferred to the 3rd Zouaves. In 1869, he was back to the Imperial Guard, this time serving with the 4th Voltigeurs. Chazotte was wounded at Mars-la-Tour (Rezonville). He finished his career as Colonel of the 4th line infantry regiment (promoted to Colonel in 1875). This photo was taken in 1860 when Chazotte was Captain of the Zouave regiment of the French Imperial Guard. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Chazotte in 1860 with other officers of the Guard Zouaves: Source: http://www.military-photos.com/ _________________ My avatar: Zouaves of the French Imperial Guard at the Châlons Camp in 1857.
