2nd Brigade, 13th Division, IV Corps, Army Du Nord, 1815
The other half of the 13th Division is the 2nd Brigade commanded by Général de Brigade Comte Francois-Alexandre Desprez and consisted of the line regiments of the 48th and 69th.
With the rest of the division, the 2nd brigade was involved with the fighting at Limal during the close of the Battle of Wavre, but I can't find much else out about them than that.

Speaking of French Line Infantry, I am currently selling a number of brand new boxes of the Perry Miniatures 28mm figures on EBay. Click HERE to see them There are 42 figures in the box and are lovely sculpts and I only have a limited number for sale, so be quick!

ReplyDeleteThanks Russ, although it's the mass effect really, don't look too closely at them...
