Nice to see a Constable POV - poor man knew his job, he was overruled by aristocratic idiots who didn't.
BTW which source did you use for the French march? I'm using AH Burne, on the grounds that a soldier who'd actually fought over the ground in question would have a better idea about it than the academics, who tend to go a bit vague about it. But I'm always on the lookout for more info.
