Georges Louis Humbert (8 April 1862 – 1921) was a French general during World War I.

He was the son of Émile Siméon Humbert, a gendarme and Nathalie Augustine Eulalie Breton.

Career

He participated in the Tonkin Campaign (1885–1887), the Second Madagascar expedition (1895–1896) and the Tunisia Expedition of 1906.

On 23 June 1907, he became Colonel of the 96th Infantery Regiment and on 23 March 1912 General of the 56th Infantry Brigade.

In World War I, he led the Division marocaine during the Battle of the Marshes of Saint-Gond, as part of the First Battle of the Marne (September 1914).

Between 21 September 1914 and 9 March 1915, he was in command of the Groupement Humbert, later named Corps combiné Humbert, which became the 32nd Army Corps.

On 9 March 1915, he received the command of the Eighth Army until 24 July of the same year, when he took over the command over the Third Army, which he held until the Armistice.

He also briefly commanded the Seventh Army, in 15–23 October 1918.

Humbert was one of the most appreciated French generals of World War I. His son Jacques followed in his footsteps and was a general during World War II.

Humbert died from disease in 1921. He was buried in the vaults of Les Invalides.
