PARIS, Jan. 2O-"The Republican
Guard" the crack Partisan regiment
whose band was heard in America
in 1904, is not expected to do duty
outside of the entrenched camp OF

SIG men to fill gaps in both cav
airy and infantry regiments and
enarned 1854 citations in orders OF
the day with nine crosses Of the
Legion of Honor, twenty-one military
medals and ninety-nine war crosses.
The Guard is recruited among men
who have accomplished their regular
military service and who volunteer
for military career in this select
Partisan corps.
Many Of them are subaltern Off

men. Their particular service is to
protect the capital, act as escort OF

complement Of officers and the ranks
Of some regiments Of infantry; every
soldier and officer Of the Republican
Guard volunteered; the men needed

guardsman. Balllergeau, worked his
