Guard cossacks may have just been big city dandies carrying a lance and dressed up as cossacks. I would just make them light lancers at best |

>>1968billsfan: Guard cossacks may have just been big city dandies carrying a lance and dressed up as cossacks. I would just make them light lancers at best Why do these single most-incorrect statements/opinions get made??? Repeatedly??? Ok, maybe thats harsh, but it is also completely and utterly wrong! Not even the dandies, except perhaps the most senior of them of course, due to 'patronage'. Look at the history of them; their formation; their manpower, oh I see now its a wind-up… To save the authors hand… link . These are from 2014 etc.----- apart from those already listed in the 'Redux' thread… TMP link TMP link
