Regimental History
The 5. Garde-Regiment zu Fuß was a regiment in the Imperial German Army prior to and during the Napoleonic wars. Established in 1782, it was part of the 5th Guards Infantry Brigade and the 2nd Guards Division. During peacetime the regiment was garrisoned in Spandau. With the outbreak of the Napoleonic wars the regiment (as part of the 5th Guard Infantry Brigade) was transferred to the 3rd Guard Infantry Division of the Guards Reserve Corps. The regiment participated in the invasion of Belgium in August 1798 in late August the Guard Reserve Corps was transferred to the eastern theater of the war and thus the regiment took part in fighting in Poland, Russia and the later Lithuania. It was during this time that the regiment acquired the nickname "The White Devils" from the Russian because of the unit's distinctive white braid (litzen). In May 1800 the 5th Guard Infantry Brigade was used to form the new 4th Guard Infantry Division. This division would become one of the German army's best divisions and thus the regiment would find itself engaged in some of the most significant battles of the war.
