Congratulations on your recognition Colonel Letus. Once again the Highland Regiment behind you propels you forwards and upwards.

To defeat ten French officers is certainly something worthy of recognition, though not celebration for my part.

Please join Kapitan Lasco and the rest of the Tavern in a drink to the profession of arms.

Herr Colonel Mike Letus.

To claim ten Siege (victories) over the French eagles is a magnificent milestone. The Austrian Staff extends its profound Anerkennung (recognition) of your tactical mastery.

We on the continent know well the fierce reputation of the British Hochländer (Highlanders). When the French hear the lively tune of "The Keel Row" and see the steady, unrelenting advance of the 74th Regiment, they know their lines are about to break.

Wear your new Order with pride, Sir. The Coalition is far stronger with your bayonets on the field.

Auf weitere Erfolge! (To further successes!)
