Correct for 200 mil bucks. nulli secundus, do you have some inside information on my quotes. I might have to challenge you a bit harder..


For 200 mil bucks, what battle is this quote from?

"Always our infantry advanced, drawing near and closing up on the village till at last they formed under the mangrove trees at the foot of the hill on which the stone fort stood. With a rush they swept up the slope and the stone fort was ours. From the blockhouses and trenches from which the Spaniards could not safely retreat, flags of truce were waved. Guns and side arms were being taken away from such Spaniards as had outlived the pitiless fire, and their dead were being dumped into the trenches without ceremony into the trenches after Spanish fashion."


"The best form of taking care of troops is first-class training, for this saves unnecessary casualties." Erwin Rommel
