En 1885, pour échapper à la misère, il s'engage dans l'armée. Un engagement de cinq ans pour servir la pacification au Tonkin. Il est amené à rencontrer des officiers photographes forts bien équipés. Il apprend à utiliser le matériel et s'approprie les techniques du développement de pointe de l'époque. Très intelligent, il va les utiliser en Indochine, à Hanoï, après sa période militaire. Personnage romanesque, il quitte l'armée par amour, pour épouser une Malestroyenne, Marie-Victoire Glais. Ils auront quatre enfants. L'envie de voyage le reprend.
