Some observers thought Napoleon was thinking of founding colonies in distant lands, and there are accounts of bricklayers, carpenters and artisans being drafted into the army or despatched in separate units, but this is probably no more than gossip, based on the fact that prescient commanders such as Davout identified those soldiers who could, for instance, build ovens and bake bread, and made sure that every company had a complement. At the same time, it is certainly true that the army was followed by hordes of people whose purpose was not always clear. See: Begos, 171–2; Bourgeois, 1–2; Chambray, I/164; Puibusque, 9.
