Love this video as not many people do ranks would be nice to see how other countries during the Napoleonic era organizes their ranks.

[@johnnybakblast457]

Thanks, I’ve been looking for exactly this information

[@panicon2]

Very useful video. However on 5:16 - This crown is not the one called 'Tudor'. I really enjoyed this video, i'd like to watch more of the sort. Thank you so much!

[@General-History101]

Thank you for your support!. However, the crown is Tudor as in 1953 the crown was changed to the crown of St Edward. This change was made because of the coronation of Elizabeth II

[@panicon2]

@@General-History101 The one shown is NOT the one of the Tudor type. Sorry! Check your sources. It is my job to know these things.

[@General-History101]

@@panicon2 Well from my research the actual insignia shown in the video is incorrect and it should be a Tudor crown. Apologies for the confusion.

[@panicon2]

@@General-History101 That's OK. Thank you for your swift reply! We could communicate via email. I think there is room for cooperation here. What do you think?

[@General-History101]

That sounds interesting: [e-mail]

[@thebullfrog9416]

Can you do more videos on other Napoleonic army rank Like the French, Prussian, Russian ect

[@General-History101]

I certainly will do. I’ve got two soviet videos to do then I will get round to it!

[@ktmoney218]

In the show, Sharpe's rifles, their uniforms were green and Sharpe never wore any officer rank insignia. Is that historically accurate?

[@General-History101]

Yes, it was designed to be a camouflage uniform

[@95DarkFire]

"Never saw a major setback". Well, except that time they were driven out of Spain and thousands died on the retreat to the sea.

[@General-History101]

I’ll admit I was incorrect on that case but for the vast majority of its campaigns it performed effectively

You must do French ranks during napoleonic wars!! 😁

[@CaptainChip501]

What about us Riflemen? Their ranks and insignias are wierd.

[@General-History101]

NCOs and soldiers had the same ranks and insignias but officers didn’t use insignias commonly.
