A Chasseur (a French term for "hunter") is the designation given to certain regiments of French light infantry (Chasseurs-à -Pied) or light cavalry (Chasseurs-à -Cheval) troops, trained for rapid action. The name was originally used for infantry units in the French Army recruited from hunters or woodsmen. Recognized for their marksmanship and skirmishing skills, the chasseurs were comparable to the German Jäger or the British Rifles.
