Naturally, upon sighting the newest Sharpe compilation I clicked upon it; That's my style, sir!

[@johnfitzgerald9245]

Did any video clip in the compilation distinguish itself?

Naturally, after seeing a Sharpe video, I knew someone would have recycled this comment for the millionth time..

Quite so Captain Leroy Quite so

[@davidsaville5239]

In the books, the senior officer in the 95th Rifles isn't killed but is captured and makes an appearance in Sharpe's Waterloo where Sharpe outranks him because Sharpe is a staff officer for the Prince of Orange

The actual first eagle captured in the Peninsular War was by Ensign Keogh and Sergeant Masterson of the 87th (Royal Irish Fusiliers) Regiment at the battle of Barossa in 1811. Sgt Masterson was screaming "Faugh a Ballagh" (clear the way) as he attacked, and this became the motto of the Royal Irish Regiment, my former unit.

[@seesafar9912]

Very fine in every manner; acting, props, locations, editing, continuity and plot. The actresses are gorgeous. The tease is done to perfection. Lighting is always perfect. Plot never fails, and it is a "Period" depiction performed superbly by all. Thank you. Excellent Theater.

Let’s stroll through the countryside without putting scouts out.

[@__-pl3jg]

Yea, and also never fire from behind cover of any kind. No trees, no holes in the ground, no shields, no camouflage. This is the sloppiest desire to survive or win I've ever seen.

[@archieletsyouknow5508]

💯🤔 they were on R&R

[@davidsaville5239]

Yes, why not? It's not like anything is going to go wrong!!!

[@davidmurray5399]

During the Napoleonic era, British Rifle and Light companies were trained on how to deal with attacking cavalry if they were caught by them out in the open. If deployed as skirmishers they would form groups, of two to three or more, stand back to back with one man loading while the others in the miniature square would fire. Unless the enemy cavalry were armed with lances and the Rifle/Light men didn't panic, they could at least put up a good enough fight to survive and perhaps move to more covered terrain, like Sharpe's men were on the hillside.

[@sharioverend1618]

Napoleonic military history is fascinating. Without the Irish we'd be speaking French.

[@davidsaville5239]

It was known as the rally square !! Sometimes, the light Companies and British rifleman would join the line infantry squares

[@davidsaville5239]

This was the reason why the 95th had sword bayonets as the rifle was shorter than the line infantry's muskets!!

[@MarkGuest-th8jm]

I absolutely love this series. Been doing some research on the real 95th rifles. They were armed with Baker rifles that could only fire one round per minute. There advantage was range. They could take out French officers to cause confusion in the French ranks beyond the French range

[@markmaher4548]

Erm, average rate of fire with the baker was 2rnds per min with jacketed rounds (leather patch placed around the ball to grip the rifling), & 3 rnds per minute with standard ball (no jacket). There's a very good series of documentary vids on You Tube by British Muzzle Loaders cover the Baker & the Rifle brigade.

Seems like they could have taken out way more soldiers using arrows instead of lead shot because they could fire faster. All the enemies are grouped together tightly.

What 's the purpose of having a line of drummers go into battle? They'd be more effective holding rifles or swords.

[@dr.strangelove6118]

Though dramatized because it’s television, It’s for “Battle organization” The battlefield is loud place and drums as well as other instruments translate orders to formations. Regimental drummers would be close marching to regimental colors which present a rally point to troops of different formations. The other reason being psychological, men in formation being lead with war instruments can be intimidating to the enemy. Army bands intergraded with troops in combat would last throughout history up until the First World War. Because machine guns and radio.

[@davidsaville5239]

@dr.strangelove6118 When the drummers and other musicians in a Regiment weren't playing their instruments, they were used to get wounded soldiers back to the surgeons !!

[@davidsaville5239]

@sagatuppercut2960 Line infantry such as the fictional South Essex Regiment portrayed here would not be armed with rifles but would carry muskets. Only skirmisher Regiments like the 95th Rifles would be armed with Rifles at this time!!
