Congratulations to all these fine officers!

The La Grande Armée is very close to having all medals current for it's officers with we hope will be only one more post this month. Our goal in the future will be to keep them up to date and award medals within a few days of earning them. We will also be looking to awarding some medal awards to those officers going beyond the call of duty to insure the success of the LGA.

More officers to be recognized for their achievements in the very near future
and we will continue to research our records to insure any medals due our officers are awarded

Battle On...

Surely that depleted all of their metal. No more bullets for the French, boys. Fix bayonets! We're going in. Let's end this miserable war once and for all.

Seriously though, congratulations gentlemen. :P :P :P

Congratulations!

All these fine medals come courtesy of captured coalition, and by that I mean English, gold. Sorry Mark, we still have plenty of lead, iron and steel for you and your ilk.

All right, all right, all right. Set aside your bayonets for the time being, lads. I well know this French Marechal to be a tough character. No sense frontally assaulting him when he is vigilant. :? :o :shock:

Let's wait until he goes to sleep. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

But if you were ever in doubt about the true intentions of these French minions, take a close look at their spelling. It is called a Freudian Slip when they spell the metal as "steal". :roll: :oops: :mrgreen:
