What flamboyant marshal did Napoleon place in command of his cavalry?
Napoleon Bonaparte [August 15, 1769-May 5, 1821] filled the office of Marshal of France twenty-six times during his First Empire [1804-1814]. Perhaps his most flamboyant choice to put in charge of his cavalry was brother-in-law Joachim-Napoleon Murat [March 25, 1767-October 13, 1815]. Murat was known for quick thinking and quick wit, good looks, and daring cavalry charges. For example, he managed to move cannons all the way to the center of Paris without attracting the attention of rambunctious, rampant rioters. At his execution before a firing squad, he refused to have his eyes covered, or to sit down: "I have braved death too often to fear it." His final words were, "Save my face - aim for the chest - fire!"
