Armand von Nordmann
Joseph-Armand Ritter von Nordmann (31 August 1759 – 6 July 1809), was a French officer in the French Royal Army. He transferred his allegiance to Habsburg Austria during the French Revolution, like other French émigrés. In Austrian service he fought capably against his former country during the French Revolutionary Wars and the Napoleonic Wars.
A colonel in the French army, he defected to the Coalition forces in 1793. After fighting in one of the émigré armies, he became an Austrian officer in 1798. After commanding a cavalry regiment for several years, he was elevated in rank to general officer. He led a division in 1805, even though by rank he was a brigadier. From the start of the 1809 war, he was entrusted with small independent scouting forces and rear guards. He was promoted again to lead a corps-sized force shortly before he was killed at the Battle of Wagram.
==French Revolutionary Wars==
Born at Molsheim in Alsace on 31 August 1759, Nordmann joined the French Army of the Old Regime. After the outbreak of the French Revolution, he remained in the army and rose in rank to become colonel of the ''Bercheny'' (or ''Berczeny'') Hussar Regiment. He fought under Charles François Dumouriez and François Christophe Kellermann at the Battle of Valmy on 20 September 1792. In early 1793, he defected to the Austrians with two squadrons of his regiment. Afterward, he led the cavalry of the émigré Bourbon Legion in Germany until the end of the War of the First Coalition in 1797.〔http://www.napoleon-series.org/research/biographies/Austria/AustrianGenerals/c_AustrianGeneralsN.html#N16 Smith, Digby & Kudrna, Leopold (compiler) napoleon-series.org ''Austrian Generals 1792-1815: Armand Nordmann''〕 Napoleon Bonaparte always called Nordmann the "Alsatian traitor".〔
In 1798 Nordmann was appointed to the rank of Oberstleutnant in the Habsburg service. When the War of the Second Coalition broke out, he fought at the First Battle of Stockach on 25 March 1799 and at Andelfingen in May. On 17 March 1800, he received promotion to Oberst of the ''Latour'' Dragoon Regiment # 11. In May he led his regiment at the battles of Second Stockach and Messkirch. He performed notable service in action at Neuburg an der Donau on 27 June. After the end of the armistice, he fought at the Battle of Ampfing on 1 December 1800.〔 Two days later, he commanded his cavalrymen at the Battle of Hohenlinden in Paul Esterházy's brigade of Prince Friedrich Karl Wilhelm Hohenlohe-Ingelfingen's division in Ludwig Baillet de Latour-Merlemont's Right Center column.〔Arnold, James R.

ISBN 1-84415-279-0. 276〕 During the retreat after Hohenlinden, the ''Latour'' Regiment fought at Salzburg on 14 December and Schwanenstadt on the 16th.〔Smith, Digby.
