Gajewski joined the Saxon Garde du Corps in 1809 then the 5th Polish Chasseurs in 1811. During 1812 he was a staff officer in Grouchy's Reserve Cavalry Corps before being assigned to Napoleon's Imperial Staff. He was promoted to colonel and awarded the Legion of Honour for his heroic conduct at Dresden. He retired after the gruelling 1814 campaign. His unique memoir provides valuable insight into the life of a young staff officer in some of the most gruelling of Napoleonic campaigns.
