The fifth day of Kwanzaa goes well! Today I learned that it is an actual holiday and not just something people made up in the 60's.

Also, I got some socks. They are pretty dope.

I'm reading Sharpe's Rifles and I've got to say, there was a part that reminded me of how we roll in battles. Sharpe and his small company were attacked by dismounted French dragoons and instead of retreating or engaging them at distance he bayonet charged them and drove them away lol.

Idk never really dug the sharp series. A Napoleonic Novel you might like called  Four Days in June



Btw be sure to show Darkguns the ropes in preparations or the LB on Friday.

[Duuring]

Ha, Cornwell commenting it's a triumph. Sounds like shit then. Hows the Pro-British-bias?

Idk never really dug the sharp series

Good. Let's keep it that way. The books are amusing and nice to read, but the fact Cornwell thinks he writes historical correct books overshadows that. Sharpe's Waterloo is a terrible piece of propaganda. Plus, troughout the books Cornwell drops quite a few historical mistakes, especially concerning non-British (As he doesn't think those important enough to research). Once again, Sharpe's Waterloo is the worst of the worst.

[KillerMongoose]

I agree with Duuring, it's an entertaining read but I wouldn't place any value on it's historical content. There are several historic mistakes as well which Duuring pointed out. For example he describes the Cazadores as wearing scarlet uniforms yet I've never found anything on scarlet uniformed cazadores. Other than that I like the image it paints of John Moore's retreat. But I will probably skip Sharpe's Waterloo. Just awful that. Giving credit to Quatre Bras to the British as well as the breaking of the Old Guard.

Almost any historical action novel shouldn't really be taken for historical accuracy.

Feels good to be back.

There's a difference between writing historical mistakes and re-writing history altogether. Cornwell does the last.

Nice going, Sergeant-major. Too bad about the uniform though. Guess you can't have 'em all.
