Скачать или смотреть How Irish Regiments Fueled Wellington's Victories

Did you know that nearly half of the "British" army that defeated Napoleon wasn't English at all?
In this documentary, we uncover the forgotten history of the Peninsular War and the "Invisible Hand" behind the Duke of Wellington's greatest triumphs: The Irish Soldier.
From the terrifying bayonet charges of the Connaught Rangers at Busaco to the suicide missions at the walls of Badajoz, Irish regiments were the shock troops of the Empire. We dig into the archives to reveal why thousands of men from Cork, Dublin, and Galway took the "King's Shilling" to fight for an Empire that oppressed them-and how their specific brand of "wild" courage changed the course of European history.
If you enjoy deep dives into the Redcoat Era, the British Empire, and forgotten military history, make sure to SUBSCRIBE and hit the bell!
