Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Karl Joseph Graf Hadik von Futak was born in 1756 in Leutschau (now Levoca in Slovenia) in Hungary. He was the son of FM Andreas Graf Hadik, who had raided Berlin in the Seven Years War. He entered Austrian military service in the cavalry and was promoted to captain on 1 March 1766 and to Major on 29 May 1779, in his father's Hussar Regiment. On 1 May 1784, he was promoted to Oberstleutnant. Hadik fought in the War of the Bavarian Succession in 1779 and was distinguished in the raid on Gebersdorf. He also fought in the wars against the Turks in 1788/89 and was distinguished at Belgrade. In July 1789, he was promoted to Oberst and made commander of Hussar Regiment "Graf von Blankenstein" N°16.
In 1792 Count Hadik commanded his hussar regiment in the Netherlands and on 29 September, forced the crossing of the Sambre against superior forces. He fought in the Austrian defeat at Jemappes on 6 November of that year. In 1793 he again distinguished himself in the action at the crossing of the Sambre. On 16 October 1793 he held up a far superior French force all day on 16 October; for which he was promoted Generalmajor on 24 February 1794. The same year in April, he commanded a cavalry brigade in (Baillet de) Latour's division of the Prince of Orange's corps in the Netherlands. On 7 July 1794, he was awarded the Military Maria Theresian Order (KC). In 1795 Hadik commanded a brigade in Clerfayt's Army of the Lower Rhine, in Germany, and in 1796, he served in Erzherzog Carl's Army of the Lower Rhine and fought at Wetzlar, Amberg, Würzburg and Aschaffenburg. For his actions at Würzburg, on 29 April 1797, he was awarded the Commander's Cross of the MMTO. On 10 April 1797, Hadik received his promotion to Feldmarschalleutnant. Early in 1800 he commanded a division in Novara and fought at Cadibona, in the siege of Genoa and at the battle of Novi on 15 August. He commanded a corps (although still an FML) at Marengo, where he was mortally wounded. He died on 24 July 1800 in Alessandria.

Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Johann Peter Karl Graf Hennequin von Fresnel und Curel was born in France in 1762. After the French Revolution he entered Austrian military service (1793) with the rank of colonel. On 27 September 1799, he was promoted to Generalmajor. In 1800 he commanded a brigade in Schwarzenberg's division of the Right Wing in the battle of Hohenlinden (3 December). In 1805, Count Hennequin was in Schwarzenberg's Avantgarde, under FML Klenau, commanding a grenadier brigade. On 1 January 1807, he was promoted to Feldmarschelleutnant. In 1809 he commanded an infantry division in Bellegarde's I Army Corps at Aspern, Wagram and Znaim. During the campaign of 1813/14 he served in the main army and fought at Arcis-sur-Aube on 20-21 March, where the Austrians defeated Napoleon. On 21 January 1817 Hennequin received promotion to General der Kavallerie. He died on 25 February 1831 in Galicia.

Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Friedrich Joseph Ludwig Karl August Erbprinz zu Hessen-Homburg was born on 30 July 1769 in Homburg vor der Höhe, in Hesse. He entered Austrian military service in April 1789 as Captain in the Infantry Regiment "Stain" N°50. He fought in the war with Turkey (1788-90) and was very distinguished on 26 June 1790 at Kalefat. Although his battalion was not designated for the assault, he asked FZM Clerfayt if he could take part and volunteered to lead a charge by two squadrons of Hussar Regiment "Toskana" which drove the Turks back to the Danube. For this, he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Military Maria Theresian Order on 19 December 1790 and promoted to Major in Chevauxleger Regiment "Levenehr" N°19. In May 1792, he was promoted to Oberstleutnant in the Cuirassier Regiment "Hohenzollern" N°4. On 2 December 1793, he was distinguished at Dangendorf together with LtCol Klenau and at Neuburg. In 1794 Prince Friedrich received his promotion to Oberst in Chevauxleger Regiment "Modena" N°13. On 14 September 1796, he was wounded at Neuburg. Soon afterwards, he led his regiment into action again at the battle of Biberach on 2 October and at Schliengen on 24 October. Shortly after the end of the First Coalition War (1797) he was promoted to Major General.
In March 1799 the prince was given command of a cavalry brigade in Erzherzog Carl's army in Swabia. On 25 March of this year, he fought in the battle of Stockach. The following year Prince Friedrich received his promotion to FML and commanded a division in the center at the defeat in the battle of Hohenlinden on 3 December.
In the campaign of 1805 he commanded a cavalry division in Riesch's corps of Mack's main army. On 14 October, he fought at Elchingen against Marshal Ney and was wounded at the Danube bridge. He was taken to Ulm, where he was then captured in the capitulation of that place on 15 October. Like all senior officers, he was released on parole.
In the 1809 campaign, Prince Friedrich again commanded a Cuirassier division, this time in Liechtenstein's Cavalry Reserve Corps. He fought at Aspern and at Wagram. In the latter battle, he was distinguished in the defence of Aderklaa.
On 26 July 1813 he was promoted to GoC and appointed commander of the Reserve Corps of the Army of Bohemia. He fought at Dresden, in the centre, between Plauen and Strehla. On 16 October, at Leipzig, he was distinguished on the left wing. On 18 October he was the commander of the 1st Column (40,000 men); he stormed Dölitz (where he was wounded) and Lössnig. He then advanced to Connewitz. For this he was awarded the Commander's Cross of the MMTO on 30 October. On 29 December 1813 the prince was the commander of the 5th Column in the Rhine crossing at Schaffhausen. He occupied Berne and blockaded Auxonne. In 1814 he fought at St Georges, Longsard, Dorieux and pushed Marshal Augereau back on Lyon. On 20 March, he took the key mountain post of Dardille and entered Lyon. On 11 April 1814, Prince Friedrich signed an armistice with Marshal Augereau. In 1815, he again commanded the reserve of the Austrian army on the upper Rhine. In 1820 he resigned from the Austrian army to rule the landgraviate of Hessen-Homburg, where he died on 2 April 1829.

He entered military service as a Captain in the Dutch army in 1794 for one year, after which Holland was overrun by the French. He then volunteered for Austrian service. In 1798 he was appointed Captain in the Infantry Regiment "Stain" N°50. He fought in the 1st Battle of Zürich (4 June 1799) and the storming of Mannheim the same year.
In March 1800 he was promoted to Major in the Infantry Regiment "De Ligne" N°30. In this year, he fought at Engen, Mösskirch and Hohenlinden.

Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Johann Karl von Hiller was born Modena in 1748. He was the son of a nobleman and entered Austrian military service in 1770 in Iinfantry Regiment "Sachsen-Hildburghausen" N°8, as a cadet. In that same year, he transferred to Dragoon Regiment N°38 "Karl Eugen von Württemberg", as a lieutenant. In 1771, Hiller transferred back into the infantry and in 1774, he bought himself a captaincy in Grenz Infantry Regiment N°5 "Warasdiner-Kreuzer", under "questionable circumstances". He fought in the wars against the Turks in 1788/89 and was awarded the Military Maria Theresian Order (KC) on 15 November of that year, as an Oberstleutnant, for his active defence of the Croatian border. In the next year, he was created a Freiherr (baron) and was promoted to Oberst for his participation in the capture of Berbir in 1789. Until his death in 1790, Hiller enjoyed the patronage of FM Graf Loudon. On 24 February 1794 Hiller was promoted to Generalmajor and appointed General-Kriegskommissär of the army in Italy, responsible for the provision of supplies for the army. His ruthless pursuit of his career brought him many enemies in the army.
In 1796, he fell foul of his new commander, FZM Graf Oliver Wallis, and was sent to serve under FZM Baillet de Latour in the Army of the Upper Rhine as GM of infantry. Here, he found favour with Erzherzog Carl, but a new adversary in the person on Carl's Adlatus, FML Graf von Bellegarde, who would play a crucial role in Hiller's downfall in 1813. Hiller fought in the battle of Würzburg as brigade commander. Following this campaign, he had to retire due to grounds of ill health. He returned to duty in 1798 and in 1799, he commanded a division in the Vorarlberg Corps, again under Erzherzog Carl. Hiller fought in the 1st battle of Zürich on 4 June and was badly wounded in the knee in the assault on the Mount Zürich redoubts.
On 6 March 1800, he was promoted to Feldmarschalleutnant and he served in the defence of the Tyrol. In 1801, he was appointed (briefly) commander in Agram (Zagreb) and 2nd Colonel Proprietor of Infantry Regiment N°2 "Erzherzog Ferdinand Karl". Later that year, he was posted to Innsbruck as military commander of the Tyrol and Vorarlberg.
In 1805 Hiller was charged with the defence of the south Tyrol. In 1807, he returned to command the Karstädter-Warasdiner border area. Here, he fell out badly with his old patron, Erzherzog Carl, over the policy adopted in these areas.
In 1809 he was still FML and Commanding General of the VI Corps in southern Germany, the only corps commander not of high nobility status. He was soundly defeated at Landshut on 21 April by Napoleon. Hiller defeated Marshall Bessières and the Bavarian General von Wrede at Neumarkt an der Rott on 24 April, which earned him the Commander's Cross of the MMTO. At the battle of Aspern, his corps was on the far right wing of the army. Although Marshall Massena tried everthing to hold the little village of Aspern Hiller finally threw him out and occupied the village. Immediately after the battle, Hiller was all for attacking the French on Lobau island, but this was rejected by Erzherzog Carl. There was now considerable bitterness between Hiller and the Erzherzog. On 4 July 1809 – one day beforde the battle of Wagram - Hiller asked to be relieved of his command. His wish was granted immediately. For his distinguished service at Aspern he was promoted to FZM on 3 August 1809 and returned to command the military border area.
In 1813, he commanded the Army of Inner Austria and went into Italy, to repossess Illyria and Venice. On 19 November 1813, he clashed with Prince Eugene's rearguard (GdD Comte Paul Grenier's division) at San Michele and successfully defeated it. His failure to defeat Prince Eugene soundly enough, caused him to be removed from his command.
In 1814 Hiller was appointed Commanding General of Siebenbürgen (Transylvania) and also Colonel Proprietor of the Infantry Regiment N°53. He died in 1819, as Commanding General in Galicia, in Lemberg on 5 June.

Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Born on 18 August 1765 in Bartenstein, in south west Germany the prince entered military service in the French Emigré Corps, Legion Mirabeau, on the upper Rhine in 1792. He quickly became a Colonel in the cavalry. He then transferred to Dutch service, where he was distinguished in the defence of Bommel Island at the end of 1794. Prince Ludwig Alois then entered Austrian service when Holland fell under French influence. On 12 July 1797, he was appointed 2nd Colonel in Infantry Regiment Kerpen N°49 and fought under Erzherzog Carl until 1799, when he retired.
He returned to Austrian service on 24 September 1799 as a Major General and was given command of a brigade in the Defensive Army. In 1803, he was appointed Proprietor of the Infantry Regiment N°26, which post he held until 1814.
He fought in the 1805 campaign, commanding a brigade of grenadiers in Italy, including the battle of Caldiero, 29-31 October, where he was distinguished.
On 22 February 1806 he was promoted to Feldmarschalleutnant and in 1807 he was appointed Governor of Galicia and refused Napoleon's order to enter the armed forces of the Confederation of the Rhine to which his principality belonged.
In 1809 he was commander of a division in Orsini's IV Corps and fought at Aspern and Wagram and retired at the end of the campaign. In 1813 he re-entered Austrian service and was distinguished in the defence of Seiffertshain, Leipzig, on 18 October of that year. He thence went on to the blockade of Dresden.
In 1814 he fought in the allied victory at La Ferté-sur-Aube on 28 February. Later the prince occupied Troyes and became governor of the town. He was also engaged at Arcis-sur-Aube on 20-21 March, where the Austrians defeated Napoleon. On 29 April 1814, he was promoted to Feldzeugmeister.
He retired on 17 July 1816 and took service in France under the Bourbons as Lieutenant General in the German Legion which bore his name. In 1823 he was commander of the French army sent against Spain. In 1827 Prince Ludwig Alois was promoted to Marshal of France, appointed Peer of France and Inspector General of Cavalry. When he died (on 31 May 1829) he did not leave enough to cover the costs of his funeral.

Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Friedrich Fürst zu Hohenlohe-Kirchberg was born on 3 December 1732 in Kirchberg. His Austrian military career began when he joined the Infantry Regiment N°29 "Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel". He fought in the Seven Years War as a captain of grenadiers and was wounded in the battle of Leuthen (5 December 1757) and again at Landshut on 23 June 1760, where he stormed three Prussian redoubts. For this he won the Knight's Cross of the Military Maria Theresian Order on 22 December 1761. The prince married the Countess Friederike of Reuss-Greitz in 1770, the same year in which he received his promotion to Major General. Prince Friedrich Wilhelm took part in the War of the Bavarian Succession (1778-79). In 1780, he became Colonel-Proprietor of Infantry Regiment N°17. Three years later, he was promoted to Feldmarschalleutnant. As division commander the prince fought in the wars with the Turks from 1787-92. On 7-8 October 1789, he beat the Turks in the battle of Persenji, Wallachia. For this he received the Commander's Cross of the MMTO. On 15 October 1789, he was promoted to Feldzeugmeister and appointed to Commanding General in Transylvania (Siebenbürgen).
In 1792, he was given command of all available Austrian troops (50,000 men) on the upper Rhine. On 2 August 1792, in concert with the advance of the Austrian main body under the Herzog von Braunschweig, he crossed the Rhine at Mannheim and advanced on the fortress of Thionville on the River Moselle. Following an unsuccessful bombardment of the place from 3-5 September, Hohenlohe-Kirchberg's corps (together with the Hessians and the French émigre corps) was sent off to Clermont on the Verdun–Chalons road, to cover the southern flank of the Prussian advance on Valmy. Following the fiasco there, he withdrew eastwards and adopted a defensive position behind the Moselle. From 4-7 December, he was able to defend Trier on that river from the attacks of GdD Pierre de Riel Beurnonville's Armée de la Moselle. Beurnonville was sacked for his failure. On 31 December 1792, Hohenlohe-Kirchberg was awarded the Grand Cross of The MMTO. At the end of that year, Hohenlohe-Kirchberg's corps was in Luxemburg, and on 23 May 1793, he played a decisive part in the allied victory at Famars. In the last months of 1793, and until May 1794, he acted as General Quarter Master (Chief of Staff) to the main allied army in Flanders under FM Prinz von Sachsen-Coburg-Saalfeld. Hohenlohe-Kirchberg was responsible for the French defeat of Avesnes-le-Sec on 12 September 1793. In 1794, he commanded a corps on the upper Rhine and was responsible for the recapture of Speyer on 17 September. His failing health forced him then to retire. He died on 10 August 1796 of a high fever in Prague.

Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Friedrich Franz Fürst zu Hohenzollern-Hechingen was born on 31 May 1757, in Gheule castle, near Maastricht. He entered Dutch military service in 1775, but transferred to Austrian service in the 4th Cuirassiers "Friedrich Anton Fürst von Hohenzollern-Hechingen", his uncle's regiment, in 1776. He fought in the War of the Bavarian Succession and in the wars against the Turks. In autumn of 1789, he was distinguished in the siege of Belgrade. The next year the prince was promoted to Oberstleutnant and in 1793, to Oberst. That year he fought in many engagements in Flanders, including Neerwinden (18 March), Leuven (23 March) and Wattignies (15-16 October). In 1794 he was also often in action, particularly at the sieges of Landrecies and Charleroi. In 1795 his regiment was initially at Mainz, later with the Army of the Upper Rhine. On 4 March 1796 Prince Friedrich Franz was promoted Major General and served in Italy as General of Command of Allvinczy's Avantgarde in his Corps of the Friaul. He was involved in the attempted relief of Mantua and fought at Castiglione on 5 August, where the attempted relief failed. He also fought in the next Austrian defeat at St. Giorgio on 15 September and was then forced to take refuge in Mantua. He then fought in the garrison's sortie from La Favorita on 16 January. On 29 April 1797, the prince was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Military Maria Theresian Order.
In the wars of the Second Coalition (1799-1801) Prince Friedrich Franz again fought in Italy and was repeatedly distinguished, as in the battle of Magnano (5 April 1799), the Trebbia River (17-20 June 1799), Novi (15 August 1799). He was also beaten by Marshal Macdonald at Modena on 12 June of that year. After this campaign, he was promoted to Feldmarschalleutnant. In 1800, he fought in the siege of Genoa (La Boccetta, 9 April, Sassello, 10 April, Monte Creto, 13 May); he then commanded Genoa from 4-14 June. In the winter of 1800, he fought at the Mincio River on 25-26 December and was again distinguished.
In 1805, he commanded a division in Werneck's corps in Swabia. On 13 October, he left Ulm with his division, escaped from the capitulation of Trochtelfingen and saved his command. On 19 October, he joined up with Erzherzog Ferdinand's group at Gunzenhausen and reached Bohemia. At the end of the year, he clashed with the Bavarians at Wonau (2 December) and Stecken (5 December), scoring up more victories, even if minor.
In 1809, he took over the command of the III Corps, with which he fought at Hausen and Thann on 19 April and at Eggmühl on 22 April. At Aspern and Wagram, he commanded the II Corps, with distinction. On 3 August 1809, he was promoted to General of Cavalry. From 14 October (November ?), he was appointed Commanding General in Inner Austria, with his GHQ in Graz. In 1812 he was given command of the Austrian Reserve Corps in Galicia.
In the spring of 1813, Prince Friedrich Franz was sent back to Graz to organize the raising of new troops, to guard against enemy invasion from Italy. In 1815, he was given command of the II Austrian Corps under Schwarzenberg; he then returned to Graz after the campaign.
In 1825 he was appointed President of the Aulic War Council (Hofkriegsrat) and five years later (18 September 1830) the prince received his promotion to Field Marshal. He then retired and died on 6 April 1844 in Vienna.

Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Johann Conrad Hotz, called Friedrich Hotze, son of a doctor and surgeon in Hessian service, was born on 20 April 1739, in Richterswil, in the Swiss Canton of Zürich; In October 1758, he entered the Württemberg Cuirassier Regiment "Phull". In 1761, he was promoted to captain. The problems that the Duke of Württemberg had with his nobles led to constant shortages of funds for the military, which left many officers, including Hotze, without pay. He turned to Prussia, but the end of the Seven Years War meant that his services were not required. He returned home, then took Russian service in May 1768, under Czarina Katherina II, as a lieutenant in the Ingermannland Dragoons. He saw plenty of action, mainly in Prince Rumjancev's division, which was fighting the Turks in Wallachia. There he was wounded in a failed assault on Giurgiu, Romania. Hotze then served under Suvorov and rose to be a major. This Russo-Turkish war was ended by the Peace of Kütschük Kainardschi in 1776. Hotze returned to Switzerland. On the way, he had an audience with Emperor Joseph II, who promised him a position as major in the Austrian army. In 1777, the emperor travelled through Hüningen, on the upper Rhine and Hotze again approached him. Two years later, Hotze was appointed Major in Cuirassier Regiment N°26 "Berlichingen". He was mobilised for the War of the Bavarian Succession, but saw no action. Shortly after this, Hotze transferred to Cuirassier Regiment "Voghera" N°27. In 1784, Hotze was promoted to Oberstleutnant and given command of the 1st Galician Uhlan Corps, which later became the Uhlan Regiment N°1 in the Austrian army. It was Hotze who introduced the lance into Austrian service. The emperor was so pleased with Hotze`s performance, that he appointed him commander of the new regiment, in the rank of Oberst (1786). In 1787, he was posted to Cuirassier Regiment N°4. He was then sent by Emperor Joseph II back to Russia, to help organizing the Russian cuirassier regiments for Katherina II. His regiment did not fight in the wars with the Turks.
In 1792, his regiment was in the Breisgau in Esterházy's corps. In spring 1793, they were posted to GdK Graf Wurmser's army on the upper Rhine. Hotze was now promoted to Generalmajor. In the storming of the Weissenburg lines on 13 October, Hotze commanded the 3rd Column, which contributed to the victory. For this, he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Military Maria Theresian Order on 25 October of that same year. On 22 December 1793, his command was scattered by a heavy French assault on the Liebfrauenberg and had to fall back over the Rhine.
In 1794, he fought in Hohenlohe-Kirchberg's corps on the upper Rhine. He fought at Heiligenstein, Schweigenheim, Westheim, Landau, on the River Queich, at Schifferstadt, Neuhof and Oberholzheim, against GdD Louis-Charles-Antoine Desaix's corps of the Armée de la Moselle. The next year, he again fought under Wurmser, at Edighofen and Kaiserslautern. For his careful conduct in the last campaigns, he was promoted to Feldmarschalleutnant in March 1796.
In 1796, Hotze was involved in all major actions in southern Germany under Erzherzog Carl. He commanded the advance guard in the battle of Malsch (9 July), held up the French for several hours in the battle of Cannstadt (21-22 July), commanded the centre at the battle of Neresheim (11 August) and held the field. He was also distinguished in the actions of Neumarkt and Lauf and in the battle of Würzburg. On 29 April 1797, he was awarded the Commander's Cross of the MMTO.
He was now called home to Switzerland to take command of the troops there, trying to fend off the depredations of the French Revolutionay armies. Unfortunately, he arrived only at the time of their defeat at Aarwangen. The new Swiss government deprived him of his citizenship, for consorting with the Swiss government in exile. It was Hotze's efforts that caused the Canton of Graubünden to call upon Austria for help against the French. Hotze was sent to that province when hostilities broke out in 1799. He defended Feldkirch against Massena's troops on 7 and on 22-23 March, recaptured the St Luziensteig fortress on 6 May, then, together with Erzherzog Carl, he defeated Massena at Winterthur on 27 May. In the 1st battle of Zürich (4 June) he commanded the left wing; although wounded in the left arm, he forced the French to withdraw. Hotze was again appointed commander of the Vorarlberg Corps in August 1799 and was killed whilst on a reconnaissance ride on 25 September in the second battle of Zürich. The confusion in the Austrian command following his death, was largely responsible for them allowing Soult's division to cross the River Linth unopposed and to roll up the Austrian corps that day.
