Pierre-Louis François Buor de La Charoulière

Pierre-Louis François Buor de La Charoulière (Vairé, 15 January 1735 — Les Sables-d'Olonne, 2 April 1803)[1] was a French Navy officer.

He notably served as major d'escadre of Guichen's squadron during the War of American Independence.

[4] He served on Duc de Bourgogne in 1756, on Zéphyr in 1757, and later on Éveillé, on which he took part in the Battle of Quiberon Bay on 20 November 1759.

[8] That same year, Navy Minister Castries tasked Buor to write a treaty about naval tactics.

[4] General Bonaparte requested his help to organise the French campaign in Egypt and Syria in 1798, but Buor's failing health prevented him from taking command.
