61st South Gloucestershire Regiment of Foot – Talavera

[carojon]

The 61st Regiment of Foot were already a seasoned battalion when they arrived at Lisbon in June 1809.

Nicknamed the “Silver Dandies” they would later become known as “The Flowers of Toulouse”, a proud title for a regiment with a distinguished record of service throughout the Napoleonic Wars.
