Prose issues

 * consistency of spelling in place names (Vilnius vs. Vilna, Koenigsberg vs. Königsberg)
 * more things should be linked: East Prussia, Moscow, and Grand Army, to name just those in the lead
 * The names of several of his commanding officers are piped to last name; this is not useful for people unfamiliar with Napoleonic-era history.  A brief indicator of who these people are and their relative importance would be appreciated.

These things should be pretty easy to take care of; I'll place the nomination on hold.  Magic ♪piano 02:16, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
