61st South Gloucestershire Regiment of Foot - Talavera
« on: November 20, 2015, 09:33:02 AM »
The 61st Regiment of Foot were already a seasoned battalion when they arrived at Lisbon in June 1809.



Nicknamed the "Silver Dandies" they would later become known as "The Flowers of Toulouse", a proud title for a regiment with a distinguished record of service throughout the Napoleonic Wars.

Often it is better to remain silent and let people think you are stupid than to open your mouth and remove all possible doubt.
