The scene with Sharpe and Girdwood is excellent, a battle of two strong willed individuals with Sharpe completely bluffing Girdwood who was in fact correct, he did “command here”, Sharpe had no authority, he was morally correct of course but still had no authority so had to hold his nerve to get the better of Girdwood…

Originally Sharpe and his men became separated from the 95th, the 95th were sent back to the UK in the early days of the war. Sharpe and his men were seconded to the South Essex under the command of Simmerson so they retained their green jackets, eventually they were absorbed into the regiment but refused to give up their jackets and rifles, they were attached to the light company and operated as skirmishers. No one saw fit to order them to change their jackets, a wise move to be honest as it would affect their morale and make them inefficient in the field..

Peter Maginnis wore one epaulette, on the right shoulder, while captains wore one of a more ornate pattern on the right shoulder. Field officers wore one on each shoulder, badged with a star (for majors), a crown (lieutenant colonels) or star and crown (colonels).[24] Grenadier, fusilier and light infantry officers wore more ornate versions of the shoulder wings their men wore on both shoulders; trimmed with lace, chain or bullion. [25] Generals, from 1812, wore an aiguillette over the right shoulder, and rank was denoted by the spacing of buttons on the coatee: Major generals wore their buttons in pairs, lieutenant generals in threes and full generals wore their buttons singly spaced.
