I am working on my project for the storming of the Leipzig Grimma Gate October 19, 1813. I am ready with most of the attacking Swedes and Prussians as well as the defending Baden and Hesse-Darmstadt troops. In the memoirs of the Swedish officer Ljunggren he describes how a small force of French Cuirassiers charged the Swedish Jägers at the Grimma Gate.  In the Swedish archives it is also documented that many soldiers were injured by saber cuts. The question now is which Cuirassier regiment it is. In the OOB I have found the following suspects:

2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 14th

I am grateful for any comments that could point in the right direction
