sapeur du génie Sergeant

not until 1789 when officers enter engineers to the staff. There were 6 companies of sappers (sapeurs du génie). These companies were included in the artillery corps. In 1793 the number of sappers increased to 12 battalions, each of 8 companies of 200 men. In 1805 Napoleon had until 5 battalions of 1,810 to 1,812 were added three more (composed of Dutch, Italian and English).

To address the dangerous work of assault on strengths and taking top positions defended by guns, it was necessary that the bomber was deployed artillery under fire in advanced positions. It achieved what the French digging called "Sapp" (spade), a technique developed by the most prestigious engineering military of his day, Marquis de Vauban (born 1633). The sapeurs (sapper) built this trench at an angle so as to stay in scrolling, ie protected from enemy fire . As they were built forward positions from which they could return fire to the defending troops. The work continued by drawing a zigzag line to the approaching enemy stronghold enough to suppress their fire and begin the work of mining of the defensive walls. The sappers, therefore, were originally experts at demolishing and destroy the fortifications.
