The 19th and 20th Divisions formed the Georgia Corps and comprised the regiments: 19th Kazan, Suzdal, Belev, Sevastopol, Vologda, and 17th Jägers, and 20th Caucasus and Kherson Grenadiers; Troitsk, Tiflis, and Kabarda Infantry, and 9th, 15th, and 46th Jägers, having no fixed or permanent distribution into brigades.
The 28th and 29th Divisions were composed of Garrison regiments and battalions in the Orenburg and Siberia territories (44).
19 November 1811 The Podgoshcha, Staraya-Russa, Kholm, Toropets, Belev, Vyazma, Starodub, Novgorod-Severski, Konotop, Romny, Akhtyrka, Zmiev, and Izyum Recruit Depots were ordered to be composed of six three-company battalions, the Roslavl of five, and the Yelna of four. These battalions were singly assigned to each of the infantry regiments of the 25th, 14th, 5th, 4th, 17th, 3rd, 7th, 24th, 18th, 26th, 12th, 15th, 9th, 11th, and 23rd Divisions and took up the name of fourth battalions of the regiments, also being called their Reserve [Rezervnyi] and Recruit [Rekrutskii] battalions (45).
22 November 1811 The Kargopol, Olonets, Belev, Chigrin, Novomirgorod, Yelisavetgrad, Olviopol, Ivanovo, Taganrog, and Azov depots, belonging to the 6th, 21st, 17th, 22nd, 8th, 10th, 16th, 13th, 19th, and 20th Divisions, were ordered to each have six three-company battalions, which received the name of fourth Rezervnye [chetvertye Rezervnye] or Recruit [Rekrutskie] battalions of those regiments to which they were assigned, and at this time all Recruit Depots belonged to divisions as follows: Vyazma 3rd, Toropets 4th, Kholm 5th, Kargopol 6th, Starodub 7th, Novomirgorod 8th, Izyum 9th, Yelisavetgrad 10th, Roslavl 11th, Akhtyrka 12th, Ivanovo 13th, Staraya-Russa 14th, Zmiev 15th, Olviopol 16th, Belev 17th, Konotop 18th, Taganrog 19th, Azov 20th, Olonets 21st, Chigrin 22nd, Yelna 23rd, Novgorod-Severski 24th, Podgoshcha 25th, and Romny 26th. Thus, only two Depots were not divided into battalions: the Yaroslavl and Bakhmut; and in the Army infantry only Grenadier regiments did not have fourth battalions. Along with these orders, the 1st and 2nd Reserve Divisions, composed of Reserve battalions, were called the 1st and 2nd Reserve Corps [1-i i 2-i Rezervnye Korpusa], and Reserve brigades were renamed Reserve divisions [Rezervnyya divizii] (46).

The second and Reserve battalions of the Yelets Regiment (11th Division) were located on their settlement in Mogilev Province, and therefore were not part of the Reserve forces; likewise second battalions were not detached from the 19th and 20th Divisions stationed in Georgia and the Caucasus, and whose Reserve battalions were soon disbanded.
Combined Grenadier Battalions[Svodnye Grenaderskie bataliony] were formed from the Grenadier companies of second battalions, based on the regulation of 22 October, 1811, set forth above:

nyi</I> battalions were assigned to the newly established <I >Reserve armies </I><I Rezervnyya armii], but since war with France soon broke out these armies were not completely formed:
32nd, 33rd,
39th, 40th, 41st, and 42nd Divisions to the 1st Reserve Army;
34th, 35th, 36th, and 37th Divisions to
the 2nd Reserve Army;
43rd, 44th, 45th, 46th, and 47th Divisions
to the 3rd Reserve, Observation, Army.
The 30th and 31st Divisions were not assigned to these armies, but formed the garrison in the city of Riga, and the 38th was used to fill out various regiments (48).
19 March 1812 With the organization of the 1st and 2nd Western Armies [1-ya i 2-ya Zapadnyya armii] from the forces deployed on the Empires western border, the first comprised: the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 7th, 11th, 14th, 17th, 23rd, and 24th Infantry Divisions, and the second: the 2nd, 12th, 26th, and 27th. All were with their Combined Grenadier battalions (49).
1 May 1812 From the recruits mustered in Yaroslavl, Vladimir, Kostroma, Voronezh, Ryazan, and Tambov were established new regiments: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Infantry, and 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Jägers (50).
5 May 1812 With the formation of the new
3rd Reserve Observation Army [3-ya Rezervnaya Observatsionnaya
armiya] (in place of the one never organized), it was assigned the
following Infantry divisions: 9th, 15th, and 18th, with their Combined
Grenadier battalions, as well as the Zapasnyi battalions of the 15th
and 18th Divisions. Additionally, as related above, the 8th, 10th, 13th,
16th, and 22nd Divisions were in the Danube Army [Dunaiskaya
armiya]; the 6th, 21st, and 25th in Finland; and the 19th and 20th
in Georgia and on the Caucasian Line.
The Zapasnyi and Rezervnyi battalions
enumerated above were in part distributed to the various corps, where they
subsequently were used to replace losses in personnel, and in part, at the
very beginning of military operations, used to bring the forces up to
strength under the direct orders of the Commanders-in-Chief of the
armies.
By the month of June, i.e. by the time the forces
of the Emperor Napoleon crossed over the Russian borders, the distribution of
Infantry divisions to the three armies facing him was as follows:
a.) In the 1st
Western Army [1-ya Zapadnaya armiya]:
In the 1st Inf. Corps 5th
and 4th Divisions, with their Combined Grenadier Battalions and the
Zapasnyi battalions of the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 7th, 11th, and 23rd

the Zapasnyi battalions of the 12th and 15th Divisions
(51).
27 June 1812 From recruits of the Recruit Depots of the 2nd Line were established: the 9-i,10-i,11-i,12-i,13-i, and14-i Pekhotnye polki [Infantry regiments], and afterwards all Recruit Depots were disbanded (52).
16 September 1812 The 1-ya and 2-ya Zapadnyya armii [1st and 2nd Western Armies] were combined into one, under the name Glavnaya armiya [Main Army] (53).
17 September 1812 From the 3-ya Rezervnaya Observatsionaya armiya [3rd Reserve Observation Army]and the Dunaiskaya armiya [Danube Army] was formed the 3-ya Zapadnaya armiya [3rd Western Army] (54).
26 October 1812 Having been established in May and June of this year, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, and 14th Infantry regiments and the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Jäger regiments were disbanded in order to provide replacements for the other forces in the Main Army (55).
After this, during the remaining months of 1812, in 1813, and in the greater half of 1814, there were many changes in the composition and names themselves of the armies, corps, and divisions operating against the enemy, directly resulting from the course of the war. Being only temporary measures on the part of the Commanders-in-Chief, they belong more to a history of the military operations of that time then to a survey of the basic changes in the composition and nomenclature of the forces, and therefore only those Government orders will be presented below which directed changes that were not just applicable to wartime.
11 March 1813 The Borodinskii [Borodino] and Tarutinskii [Tarutino]Pekhotnye polki were established, assigned to the 23rd Division (56).
16 March 1813 The 1-i, 2-i, 3-i, and 4-i Morskie polki [Marine regiments], each consisting of three four-company battalions, and the four-company Kaspiiskii Morskoi batalion [Caspian Marine Battalion] were transferred from the Navy Department [Morskoe vedomstvo] to the Military-Land [i.e. Army] Department [Voenno-Sukhoputnoe vedomstvo]. In 1812 the first three of these were already in the 25th Infantry Division (57).
13 April 1813 For their distinction during the 1812 campaign, the Life-Grenadier and Pavlovsk Grenadier Regiments became part of the Guards, and the Kexholm and Pernau Infantry, for similar distinction, became Grenadiers (58).
11 July 1813 New regiments were established: the Krasinskii,Rostovskii,Izmailskii and Benderskii [Bendery] Pekhotnye polki [Infantry regiments]and the51-i,52-i, and 53-i Yegerskie polki [Jäger regiments], of which the Krasinskii and the 51st joined the 23rd Infantry Division, and from the remaining five along with the 4th Marine Regiment was formed a new division titled the 28th Infantry. The 12 Zapasnyi and 8 Reservnyi battalions of the 8th, 10th, 12th, and 22nd Divisions, left in Bessarabia and the New Russia Territory, were used to form these regiments (59).
4 November 1813 Of the regiments listed above, the Krasinskii was named the 54-i Yegerskii [54th Jägers], the Rostovskii the 55-i, the Izmailskii the 56-i, and the Benderskii the 57-i (60).
3 April 1814 The 1st, 3rd, 8th, 14th, 26th, and 29th Jäger regiments, in recognition of the distinction they showed in the past war with France, were titled Grenadier Jägers [Grenaderskie Yegerskie], with retention of their previous numbers and with inclusion into the Grenadier Corps [Grenaderskii Korpus], which at this time was formed from the three Grenadier divisions, with regiments assigned to these divisions as follows:

Taurica Grenadiers, and 8th and 14th Grenadier Jägers.
3rd

Jägers.
To replace the six Jäger regiments removed to these divisions, regiments were reassigned as follows: from the 23rd Division to the 6th Division the 54th Jägers; from the 28th to the 15th the 52nd Jägers; from the 28th, again, to the 10th the 53rd Jägers; from the 28th, again, to the 14th the 55th Jägers; from the 28th, again, to the 22nd the 56th Jägers; and from the 28th, again, to the 11th the 57th Jägers. The remaining regiment of the 28th Division, the 4th Marines, transferred to the 23rd Division in place of the reassigned 54th Jägers, and then the number of the disbanded 28th Infantry Division was adopted by the former 3rd Infantry Division (61).

In the first, i.e. the Dragoon regiments, they formed sixth Reserve Squadrons [Rezervnye eskadrony], and in the otherseleventh and twelfth Reserve Squadrons, so that there would be one reserve squadron for every five operational squadrons (138).
22 November 1811 It was directed that there be four such reserve squadrons at each of the Recruit Depots: Chigrin, Novomirgorod, Yelisavetgrad, and Olviopol. Thus, all the regiments of the seven Cavalry divisions mentioned above had reserve squadrons except the Astrakhan and Novgorod Cuirassiers and Chuguev Lancers, which were just forming and were manned by personnel from the settlements assigned to them (139).
14 March 1812 Eight new Cavalry divisions were ordered to be formed from replacement and reserve squadrons:
