Though it may be cliché to say that a man in a
uniform has a certain allure, it's often true that the combo has the ability to make a girl’s heart
swoon.
Perhaps this is why Josephine fell for Napoleon, who was making a name
for himself in the French military in the early 19th century. Or more than his dashing good looks in the uniform, it may have been
the power behind the uniform that caught the stylish Josephine’s eye. After
spending time in prison during the Reign of Terror and seeing her first husband
guillotined as a part of this period of the French Revolution, it was as if
Napoleon swooped in from the battlefields to save her.
