Congratulations gentlemen!
Helga drinks here please.

I must say Marechal Corbin it is wonderful to see these newly promoted officers feted here in the Rhine Tavern before the coalition mob with all of their wannabe shiny baubles on show.

Long may it continue sire!

Congratulations on your various promotions gentlemen. I raise my glass to you. May I interest you in a celebratory tipple of my national drink - a fine malt will do the job nicely. I have a small stock of Glenmorangie should you wish too join me.

Well yes General Morgan I will partake of a wee dram.
God bless bonnie Scotland and of course a salute to our newly promoted officers!

In the tradition of Marechal MacDonald you real Scots and we removed Scots fight the English together!

Congratulations Frenchmen on your promotions and awards.

Why FM Blackbird :mrgreen: I will have you know my horse is a magnificient steed who is groomed 3 times a day and enjoys truffles as a snack.
He is also far better smelling than the wild horses of the perfidous Albion and he is fearsome on the field of battle.
I am also able to control him unlike the cavalry from your neck of the woods. :mrgreen: :P :twisted: :mrgreen: :shock:

Dear General Knox,

I am not sure what that creature is that you ride, but I am certain it is not a horse. It may possibly be in the equine family but I cannt say for sure. More likely some sort of Bovidae or perhaps related to the poor creatures pulling our supply wagons. I shall parade the Scotts Grays for you and you shall see what a horse really looks like for your future reference.. :lol:
