Charge of the French Republican Guard

Whiling away some time on youtube I happened upon this gem:

It's from an old documentary. The narrator (commentaire) has a VERY interesting name, look for it nearer the end. Hope everyone enjoys this.

very cool, should bring some perspective to those who feel cavalry can run around all day..those horses were most likely blown after filming that and decidedly so had they met an actual enemy.
