I carry one in my saddle bag for those times when my horse gets a little blocked up. :oops: ... Do you really want me to go into detail? :lol:

I have had the great privilege to go on campaign with the venerable Field Marshall, and I can tell you that he is not kidding. :shock: :shock: :shock:

And another round for our fine, Jager Colonel who has certainly earned a drink for his rousing round! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I would like to help the marshal's horse and explain how to treat a colicky horse. Now we know why so many allied horses desert and end up serving in the La Grande Armée Cavalerie.

Sir Muddy,

That has some possibilites for a weapon if we can train your horse to expel it with some force.. Why don't you bring your horse and some of the batons you have collected over the years to my tent. I also have a few we can use. Oh yes, grab MG Jones on your way and we can use him as a target. :wink:

My mission is to serve the army, sir, but in this instance, I assure you that you will be firing upon a moving target. :shock: :roll: :wink:
