von Winterfeldt said: another group attack again?

I cannot see any – none – who attacks Boney and his army without real basis – in fact the basis is well found and sourced.

In order for a group to be attacked, it has to exist. Can you define which "group" you believe is being "attacked"?

I disagree that the attacks on "Boney" and his army are either well intentioned, well sourced or well founded. Additionally, I suspect not only does the multiple use of the term "Boney" by yourself suggest bias on your part but that Brechtel198 is correct when he said many of us are captives of the same viewpoint and/or "propaganda" by British authors on the subject.

Although I realize not everyone else has the privilege of being literate in multiple languages, there is a caution for all of us to not swallow one viewpoint as the ONLY viewpoint on a subject.

I even think that 4th Cuirassier could think of something good to say about the Prussian Army, if he really tried…;-)

I'll have to get back to you on that.
