General Saint Hiliare's 4th Division Casualties April 19, 1809

Hello everyone,

I posted this earlier this week on TMP, but I wanted to show the updated list of officer casualties for the 4th Division/3e Corps on April 19th, 1809. I have also listed the NCO and soldiers casualties based off my research on the controles de troupes. I used Der Krieg Napoleons gegen Oesterreich 1809 – Freiherr Karl Binder von Krieglstein to supplement my casualty return for regiments such as the 10e Legere that I was unable to view the rosters.
