I'm feeling rather punny: Junot what? I had no clue this guy formerly existed.
Seriously, that is impressive. Never heard of the guy. Thanks for the lesson.

Jean-Andoche Junot, Duke of Abrantes, I guess.

He was a commrade of Napoleon since the battle of Toulon in 1793. He seemed to be a skilled commander and a hard occupier. You will find a lot of links in Google. However, I know nothing about this fight.

He was wounded twice at his head and he went insane and did suicide.
