Grenadiers

Grenadiers are specialized soldiers historically trained to throw grenades—small explosive devices—accurately and effectively during combat. Originally, the term comes from French and reflects their role in launching explosive projectiles. Over time, the term also refers to elite infantry units within certain armies, known for their rigorous training, discipline, and readiness for assault operations. Today, "grenadier" often honors historical units, symbolizing their tradition of precision and bravery in warfare. Their primary role combines traditional infantry skills with expertise in using explosive devices and other specialized tactics, making them crucial for assaulting fortified positions or supporting broader military operations.
