What does "voltigeur" mean in the following sentense? Obviously not the racehorse. Thank you!
From a French movie again.
Talkig about cigarettes, the man tells his employee :
I've run out. Go get six packs and a box of Voltigeurs.
The original Voltigeurs were a French military unit.
At a complete guess here, I guess the speaker means a box of matches.
Matches = soldiers (because of their arrangement in the box) = Voltigeurs.
The only other option is that "Voltigeur" is a brand name.
