Russian Hussars Live Fast And Finish Young

Description

"Historically there are very few military forces that can feasibly live up to the standards set by the cliche of ‘live fast, die young and leave a good looking corpse,’ but the Russian Hussars are one of them. Their bravery was without bounds, often launching into the thick of the fighting to ignite the battle. They were the first to involve themselves in counterattacks, first into quick onslaughts."
