Battle of Waterloo
editI am removing all the stuff relating to the Battle of Waterloo because
- 1. Uncited
- 2. Article claims the Brigade was formed on 18 August 1815 - which is a pity as Waterloo was on 18 June 1815. Sigh.
- 3. I can find no evidence that the Brigade was at Waterloo (e.g. Digby Smith, Philip J Haythornethwaite, Ian Sumner, David Hamilton-Williams, etc, etc).
- 4. None of the regiments listed (2nd Dragoon Guards, 3rd Dragoon Guards, 3rd Dragoons) claim Waterloo as a Battle Honour. Inconceivable if they were really there.
