and anyone else into military history or old movies.

I found this oldie but goodie for free on YouTube.
1970 epic of Waterloo starring Rod Steiger and Christopher Plummer.
Considering the film makers in those days had inferior equipment and editing software, this is a great movie imo.
We French nearly won if it were not for the Prussians helping Wellington...oh and a few more reasons like...
Delaying the attack,
Underestimating Wellington,
Dumb cavalry charge
Muddy battlefield hindering the artillery, and
Being exhausted already from previous battles.
Now I follow the Wests Tigers who have hundreds of more reasons why they can't defeat the enemy ha ha :)
