Re: On the battlefield, Sir, one fights

Susan - I cannot now find my source for the reasons behind Dupont's dismissal by Louis XVIII.

I do see that Titeux remarks of Dupont's ministry "Il prit le pouvoir dans une situation extraordinairement difficile et sans precdedent, avec de finances ruinees et une armee errant, desertant et se desagregeant sur toutes les routes, et il refit, en somme, les troupes qui combattirent si vaillamment a Ligny et a Waterloo." (p44)

If Titeux speaks truth, what can one say but Drole d'ironie! :D
