"Waterloo"
Rufus, have you seen the 1970's movie "Waterloo" with Christopher Plummer as the Duke of Wellington, and Rod Stiger as Napoleon? The movie's okay, but there are several nice shots of the 92nd (Gordons) and the Black Watch at Waterloo and before -- a great scene with the Watch marching by Wellington singing "Macpherson's Lament", the Gordons doing a sword dance at a ball in Brussels, and then the Gordons and Scots Grey's charge at Waterloo, with colours flying and the pipers playing "Cock o' the North" -- stirring!
"Are these AMAZONS all Wellington can send against me?"
Cheers, 
Todd
