Quotes
-
Lord Raglan : Airey! Wake up! We're surrounded. The French! They're in the courtyard.
General Airey : Our allies, my Lord
-
General Airey : [During the Battle of the Alma] My Lord, the Cavalry are to advance at once!
Lord Raglan : No.
General Airey : Yes, they must!
Lord Raglan : No. The Cavalry will escort the guns on the road to Sebastapol. Lord Lucan to the left, Lord Cardigan to the right, the guns in between. Better safe than sorry with those two gentlemen, eh? The Cavalry may not attack, but they may take prisoners.
Marshall St. Arnaud : [Collapses and dies. All remove their hats in respect]
Lord Raglan : I told you he wasn't well, Airey.
