The reason why Britain chose red coats was because they didn't know what to do with the blood of their enemies.

@@wentonmastermind It's a shame to say, but Czech citizens served Hitler's interests and licked his ass all through the war. They also produced a huge number of weapons for him. Slovakia was generally an ally of Hitler and sent its Army to the USSR. Don't you have anything to say about this? Do you want to apologize? As for the fascist uprising of 1968 in Prague, Brezhnev did everything right, because the fascist bandits who shot in the back are not the same as the entire people of Czechoslovakia.

Napoleon probably thought "Why do I hear boss music" when he heard these boys coming at him

Excellent video, the music works perfectly. Waterloo is fantastic film, those massed cavalry charges are awesome especially the French one with Ney at the head. Its easy to criticise its accuracy in detail it as its compressing a great deal into its run length but it succeeds totally in evoking the brutal yet sometimes thrilling reality of one of the most famous battles in history.

Three cheers for British Army Major-General Sir Arthur Wellesley His Grace The 1st Duke of Wellington.

Nelson wanted to make other signals ASAP, and as Jean Luc would say responded with the equivalent of "make it so"! I've got the actual exchange somewhere.

It was an allied army. The Hessians could be called Mercenaries but had a long tradition of fighting for the British, possibly because of Royal family links.

@@craigbeerdozer4197 I don't think the Hessians appreciated being called mercenaries and they were definitely not Prussian. They were hired as auxiliary troops by the British during the Revolutionary War because of their military reputation. Royal connections were secondary considerations, if considered at all. The King's German Legion, which fought for the British at Waterloo, were Hanoverians, not Hessians.

The 'Allied' army had a major part made up of what were later known as 'Dutch-Belgians'. In this film, Napoleon considered them of little importance. Of those fighting at Waterloo, the Allies made up the larger part, which is why Boney tried to fight them separately and muffed it. While the British and Prussians both claim the victory, and some French today claim they didn't lose, or that Napoleon wasn't defeated, 2/3rds of the soldiers under Wellington were that contingent I just mentioned, and whom almost never get mentioned, and made victory possible. Those mentioning the fictitious Sharpe should look into what the riflemen of the 95th did at Waterloo, as they had been paid off, then raised again (mostly without any thought given to paying them), in time for them to shoved into a farm to hold it (entirely the opposite of what they knew how to do); the battle began well for them, holding off a couple of infantry attacks, then they sensibly retired to a place known as the sandpit and stayed there.
