Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Konstantin Ghilain Karl Freiherr d'Aspré von Hoobreuk was born in 1754 (1761¹) in Gent. In 1790, as a captain, he was distinguished in putting down the rebellion in the Austrian Netherlands. On 19 December 1790, he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the MMTO. During the Campaign of 1809 he received his promotion to FML (4 May) and shortly after his appointment to Proprietor of Infantry Regiment N°18, a post that he held until his death. In this campaign, he commanded a division, which was defeated by GdD Jean-Pierre-Firmin Malher's division of Ney's VI Corps at Günzburg on 9 October. His command was scattered and he was captured. On 2 May 1809, he commanded the grenadier brigade of GdK Johann Fürst Liechtenstein's I Reserve Corps. He fought at Aspern and was mortally wounded at Aderklaa on 6 July; he died shortly afterwards.

Biographical Essay (by Digby Smith)
Paul Freiherr Davidovich was born in 1737 in Ofen, Hungary. He entered Austrian military service on 1 February 1757, joining the Infantry Regiment N°2 "Archduke Ferdinand Carl". He fought in the Seven Years War and rose to captain. In November 1771, he was promoted to major, in Infantery Regiment N°19. He also fought in the War of the Bavarian Succession and was distinguished on 18 January 1779 in the clash at Habelschwert, Silesia (today: Bystryca, Poland). For this action he was awarded the Military Maria Theresian Order (KC) on 19 May 1779, which brought him elevation to Baron (Freiherr) in 1780. In November 1781, Davidovich was promoted to lieutenant colonel in Infantry Regiment N°34 "Anton Esterházy". On 8 November 1783, he was again promoted, to Oberst and given command of the Peterwardeiner Grenz Infantry Regiment. He was again in action in the war against the Turks, and on 24 April 1788, he talked the Turkish commander of the fortress of Schabatz on the River Save (today: Sabac, Serbia) into capitulating. He then took command of the place.
In 1789 Davidovich was in the Austrian Netherlands helping FML Graf Baillet de Latour to put down the rebellion there. In 1790 he was promoted to major general. During the first years of the Revolutionary Wars, he fought in the Austrian Netherlands and northern France.
In 1794 he was again in the Netherlands under Sachsen-Coburg. The following year he served on the middle Rhine under GdK Graf Wurmser and fought in the successful siege of Mannheim, which fell on 22 November. On 4 March 1796, at the age of 59, he was promoted Feldmarschalleutnant and accompanied Wurmser from the upper Rhine down to Italy in June to relieve Mantua. He commanded the left column (the Corps of the Tyrol) in the advance down the Etsch (Adige) to Rivoli on 29 July. His column of two brigades (Meszaros and Mittrowsky) did not come into action before the Austrian defeat at Castiglione on 5 August. For the second attempt, Davidovich was to hold the Tyrol with 20,000 men. Wurmser was to advance down the River Brenta with 26,000 and seek combat. When the French turned on Wurmser, Davidovich was to come down the Etsch in their rear with "an appropriate force" to bring them to a battle, or at least keep them out of the Tyrol. Davidovich's corps consisted of the divisions of Reuss and Vukassovich, the Reserve at Roveredo and the brigades of Grösser and Loudon. By some mischance, Napoleon came to know the Austrian plan and mounted a pre-emptive strike at Davidovich. On 4 September Massena and Vaubois attacked Reuss and Vukassovich and drove them onto Davidovich and out of Roveredo with the loss of 3,000 men and 25 guns. On 5 September Massena entered Trient and Davidovich was pushed from behind the River Lava to Neumarkt up the Etsch. That evening he was forced to go further north to Neumarkt.
After Wurmser's defeat on 15 September 1796, at San Giorgio and La Favorita, Davidovich's command at Malborghetto, Pontafel and Tarvis numbered only 13,600 men, but four weeks later it had increased to 20,000. Alvinczy was now given command of the army and ordered to make a third attempt to relieve Mantua. His plan was that Quosdanovich's Corps of the Friaul was to take Bassano on the Brenta, while Davidovich's Corps of the Tyrol was to seize Trient on the Etsch.
Davidovich was ordered then to move to join up with Alvinczy – who was with Quosdanovich's corps – so as to unite before the critical battle. No advance by Alvinczy over the Etsch would be made until he received confirmation from Davidovich that he had cleared the enemy out of that valley.
Napoleon ordered GdD Charles-Henri Vaubois to drive the Austrians to his front further back up the Etsch; he assaulted Davidovich at San Michele on 2 November, but was beaten next day by him and pushed back south through Trient to Calliano. Here Vaubois was again attacked on 6 and 7 November and forced to retreat as far south as Rivoli. Davidovich advanced only as far south as Serravalle ala Adige and stopped there – for unknown reasons - until 16 November. At last he advanced again, and, on 16 and 17 November, threw Vaubois (who was now without Guieu's brigade) out of Rivoli. Here Vaubois lost 1,800 men and 7 guns. On 18 November the opponents were around Castelnuovo, level with the southern end of Lake Garda.
Davidovich's tardy advance to aid Alvinczy against Napoleon (despite receiving three direct orders to do so) cost the Austrians the defeat of Arcole. On 22 November he was beaten by Napoleon at Rivoli and then chased northwards up the River Etsch.
In 1805 Davidovich commanded the left wing of the army in Italy and fought at Caldiero. In the previous year, he had been appointed Proprietor of Infantry Regiment N°34.
In 1805 he was appointed Adlatus of the Commanding General of Slavonia and on 28 May 1807, he was promoted to Feldzeugmeister. In 1809 he was Commanding General of the Hungarian Insurrection on the west Bank of the Danube. He died on 18 February 1814, as governor of Komorn.
