The Riflemen Had a Tough Day at the Battle of Waterloo

In this video Louee explains the role of the 95th Rifles at the Battle of Waterloo. Positioned next to a farm called La Haye Sainte, the riflemen took cover in a feature called the Sandpit. But this was no playtime. They were pressed all day by Napoleon's infantry columns, skirmishers and armoured cuirassiers.

i always wonder how some random farmers felt getting their garm f*cked up by the most competent armies in the world.

The reenactment pictured in the video is actually unrealistic because there's no salesman on the edge of the map selling soup to the enemy team.

Respect to this man for going back in time and taking part in the battle bro.

I used to live on a street in Billerica Massachusetts named "Pollard." It's named after a soldier that was on Bunker Hill (near Boston) fighting the British.
Edit: A commentator in the dm offered an accurate accounting of the flawed information I originally mentioned. So:
He, Asa Pollard, died in the Battle of Bunker Hill (fought on Breed's Hill) when a cannonball, shot from a ship, decapitated him.

They also lost their English Pointer mascot that night. It had been with them all through the Peninsular Campaign 1812-14. The Brunswickers kidnapped him for food

When I heard that they were positioned by a farm, it gives me flashbacks to my favorite Roblox game Blood & Iron, and on a map with a barn, my men took cover from the incoming fire we were receiving from cannons

"The first shot reportedly took off a rifleman's head" hmm, interesting reference to how the headless horseman died...🤨
