Now, I´m a green Cadet in the Ecole de Mars, I have a clean room and an eye-catching uniform.[^]

I joined L´Armée du Rhin[:D].

I am very disappointed. I sent you such a fine welcome. AdR will have you charging uphill, through a swamp, in the snow, into 18-lb Russian Licornes before you can say "Run Away!" (a favorite of the British). If you had joined the Armee de Nord you would have been exposed to the finest French wines, the best food, and only 5-star hotels!

Your loss, but Frances gain!

<i>Naturallement</i>, I do think he made the right the right choice ... if things go utterly wrong, AdN officers can only go down with the sinking ship, while AdR officers can change sides perfectly legally and thus end the war as winners whatever comes ... unless they botch the timing, like the Saxons tend to do. [:p]

Welcome, Cadet Fornos. [:D]

Thanks Monsieur le Marechal,

I´m sorry to upset you I didn't mean to be rude, Monsieur le Comte de Hainaut et Duc de Lutzen, unfortunately I must choose only one Army. Sure, I like the french red wine but I also love beer [:p] Charging in the snow?...Brrrr!!

Wow, so "AdR officers can change sides"...Very interesting...Where´s Blucher?[;)].

You can see my brand new uniform here: http://www.1789-1815.com/armee_saxe.htm (Oops, in french only). It´s an all white fatigue uniform for summer. Do you know if there is a laundromat in the Ecole[:D]?

I see my good Marechal, you at least placed him in my capable hands to train. I will still teach him the finer points and I will be justifiably proud when he racks up sword after sword from the Allies.

Even if he has to rough it with the AdR in the 3 star hotels!

Vive Le Emperor!!!

Hah! Do you know what's the sole and only reason for having white uniforms in this era?

You can wash them! [:)]

Wash? Me!? But...Mon Marechal [:(] I belong to an ancient noble family and to my best knowledge nobody in my family used their hands or their brains for hundreds of years! Where´s my servant?

See Cadet Fornos! I told you so. The AdR doesn't even have servants for their officers! Shocking! Scandalous! The horror! What depths of depravity will we stoop to next![:0]

I will have to open another bottle! Garcon!!!![:D]

Monsieur le General Douglas Fuller! My mentor.

Excuse me please [:I]
I know, all this ended some years ago with the French Revolution and the ideals of liberty and equality. (The American Revolution served as a profound example to all Europeans, of course). But later, the most glorious, the most august Emperor took over the government and the Revolution faded. A new world, a new thinking, economy and society. No more servants...then can I hire someone?[:D]

Just invade Russia once you're graduated and "liberate" some serfs. [:D]
