The answer is French medals, sir. But they have been saving up for a long time.

To be fair to the French, they are not all medals, at least 1/3 are Christmas tree ornaments. |

Alright, let me get this straight................. First there are peacocks, now it seems that there are Ducks. Every time those folks get a medal it is always for a duck............. There is: Duck de Calais Duck d'Anger Duck d'Abrante Duck de Saalfield and yes they even have a Grand Duck: Grande Duc de Piave et Comte de Beauvais I guess they are trying to get their "Ducks" in a row......................................

Why, Monsieur le Marechal, I do believe you are correct.

Line of ducks in a fairground gallery = French infantry in line. Same difference and just as easy to hit.

Maybe then they should be called "Sitting Ducks"! |

Monsieur le marechal Bardon... I was wrong. It is not jealousy, it is envy I hear from the allied rabble. |

Or "Dead Ducks". You know, if you shoot them at close enough range, the feathers just go everywhere! Nope, not envy, John. The Prussian Army alone has enough medals to cast ten Grand Batteries of artillery if they chose to melt them down.

Envy, jealousy, covet. Pick whichever you like, it all amounts to the same thing. I'd like to see this grand Prussian battery. I am sure it would be a very impressive batch of tin soldiers.
