You're right they are too pretty not to get into the fray every now and then. If not, they'd only be used in a few scenarios (Continental at that). Regards, Dean<br /><br />P.S. I wouldn't worry so much about the pre- & post-1812 uniforms much. I'll play my white-trousered/stovepiped British at Waterloo someday :)!DeanMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07724268555970663130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2517690696075361865.post-38238922066760346682010-06-05T07:13:03.259-07:002010-06-05T07:13:03.259-07:00Why in Spain?
