Yesterday was the anniversary of Borodino. I am currently reading Moscow 1812 by Adam Zamoyski and he gives a good account of that bloodbath. Many a brave soul on both sides lost their life that day. Captain Dale Lastowicka 16th Light Dragoons 4th Cavalry Brigade Cavalry Corps Anglo-Allied Army |

One can't help but wonder what all those braves souls, be they French, Westphalian, Polish, Portuguese, Saxon, Italian, etc, really might have been thinking, about the little Corsican visiting Moscow, as they marched into the Russian guns. At least the Russian soldiers had knowledge that they were defending Rhodina. Ensign William Davis 23rd (Royal Welsh) Fusiliers 6th Brigade Anglo-Allied Army |
