Napoleon's Polish Troops - Part 1
Manage episode 378414087 series 3240918
Polish Lancers. They have a fearsome reputation from the Napoleonic Wars, but what do we really know about these men, and their countrymen in other units who served the Emperor from within the French Army itself? In the first instalment of a two-parter, Dawid Garlic returns to talk about the Polish troops who fought under the French flag, talking about their reasons for service, and some of the reasons for their remarkable reputation.
