Grenzers were the successors to the irregular army of Pandurs, which were also raised as a militia by the Habsburgs in the 18th century to defend the border with the Ottomans and also used as skirmishers in the Seven Years' War.[1] However, by the time of the Napoleonic Wars, troops from the Frontier were now formed into more regular line infantry regiments, but were considered by the Austrian generals as something between light and line infantry. They were given training in marksmanship, skirmishing and the basics of linear tactics. At the start of the war, the 18 Grenz infantry regiments formed about a quarter of the Habsburg army. The Grenzers lacked weapons, uniforms, training and discipline. For these reasons the Austrian generals considered them as something well below the regular infantry. Despite the shortcomings however they performed quite well in combat (Malgaboreth, Eggmuhl, Wagram). When many Austrian regulars fled at Austerlitz the Grenzers fought hard and suffered 66 % casualties! According to some experts, including Christopher Duffy, they were "the most enthusiastic troops" of the Austrian army. During retreat after Marengo (1800) when all order broke, two battalions of Grenzers (Warasdin-Kreuz and Ottocac) fended off all attacks and allowed the grenadier battalions to march to the Bormida. Together with the grenadiers they fought one of the last rearguard actions at Marengo.
The French had good opinion about the Grenzers and considered them as the only ones looking warlike in the entire Austrian army. Napoleon had no hesitation in using these wild men. After the defeat in 1809 Austria ceded some territories and the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 10th and 11th Grenzer Regiment went into French service. They served for Napoleon until 1814.
