The Grenadiers-Gardes and Jäger-Gardes received their flags on 1st July 1808. These were the same size and general design as those issued to the Line regiments. The inscriptions were , of course, different and the corner wreaths were of a slightly different pattern and were empty. The staves of the Garde battalions were white and the spear-shaped finial was gilt and bore the monogram of the King. On 19th May 1811 the Jäger-Carabinier-d'Elite received a standard of the Line infantry 1810 pattern, with the necessary difference to the inscription on the obverse.
