Hi all,

The completion of the 2/48th just leaves about six more units to do to finish Wellesley's army at Talavera. The regiments nickname gives a clue as to the pivotal role the 1st and 2nd battalions 48th foot played in the battle, with Wellington stating that the 48th saved the day at Talavera.
