Zouaves
The Zouaves were a class of light infantry regiments of the French Army serving between 1830 and 1962 and linked to French North Africa; as well as some units of other countries modelled upon them. The zouaves were among the most decorated units of the French Army. It was initially intended that the zouaves would be a regiment of Berbers, Berber volunteers from the Igawawen, Zwawa group of tribes in Algeria ("Zwawa" being the origin of the French term ''wikt:zouave#French, zouave'') who had gained a martial reputation fighting for local rulers under the Ottoman Empire.

More zouave regiments were raised and the men recruited to serve in them were almost exclusively French people, French or people of French descent born in French Algeria (pied-noirs), a policy which conti ...
