The 8e Regiment de Ligne were among the first French troops to clash with the British at Talavera being in action at Casa de Salinas on the 27th July 1809. They would subsequently be very involved in the main afternoon attack of the 28th July and come close to severely embarrassing the British defence.
The completion of the the third battalion, completes the regiment and if you would like to know more then just follow the link to JJ's link Jonathan |
