The Spanish for regiment is Regimiento, not Regimento: Regimiento de Santa María (a fictional unit, by the way). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.8.98.118 (talk) 12:05, 28 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Is it worth mentioning that Major Forrest (as the senior major) acts as commander of the regiment in some of the gaps between Colonels - notably after Windam's death at the start of Sharpe's Sword (and thus for nearly the whole Salamanca campaign)? Equally a Colonel is mentioned as imminently arriving to take command when Sharpe and Harper leave the regiment at the start of Sharpe's Siege and (presumably the same Colonel) is described (though not named) by D'alembord when he and Sharpe briefly meet in Sharpe's Revenge. So it is wrong to say that it "is unknown who the nominal Colonel is, or if one is even appointed" as we do know there was a Colonel. Indeed it could be that this Colonel is Joseph Ford - there is nothing in Sharpe's Waterloo that would suggest he had only just taken over. Sharpe and Harper do not know him, but Sharpe is not in the South Essex after Sharpe's Siege being reassigned to serve of the staff of General Nairn with Harper moving to Fredrickson's command.

The statement "In Sharpe's Regiment, the South Essex is in danger of being disbanded for lack of fresh recruits. Sharpe and Harper return to England and discover that..." is possibly misleading as in the novel four men return to investigate with Captain d'Alembord and Harry Price going with Sharpe and Harper, although it is only Sharpe and Harper that join up with the recruiting party under assumed names. In some ways this is a trivial distinction, but as Price and d'Alembord are absent from the Sharpe (TV series) adaptation I think this could be confusing as someone might think that what is being described her is the TV version rather than what happens in Bernard Cornwell's original novel. Thus I wonder if it should be reworked? Dunarc (talk) 22:52, 7 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
