Royal Musketeers under Louis XV: On March 1, 1718, a royal ordinance was issued, according to which lieutenant commanders of musketeer companies (and guard companies in general) were equated with colonels of the army, and other guard ranks were accordingly equated with higher ranks of the army.
In 1746, the royal musketeers took part in the battle for the last time (at the Battle of Fontenoy). At the end of the reign of Louis XV (1774), the royal musketeers numbered 454; immediately after his death, they were abolished for reasons of financial savings, during the military reform that had begun (December 15, 1775).
Helmet and supervest of the royal musketeers of the 1st company, 1814-1816.
Restoration attempts and final dissolution of the Royal Musketeers: Subsequently, two short-term attempts were made to restore this part: in 1789 (disbanded after the fall of the monarchy, in November 1792) and at the beginning of the Restoration, July 6, 1814. However, the musketeers, newly recruited from emigrants and in general the most militant legitimists (primarily former soldiers of the Prince of Condé and the Vendée rebels) were surrounded in the army, which consisted of Napoleonic veterans, with such universal hatred that it alarmed Louis XVIII. On January 1, 1816, the royal musketeers were completely abolished.
