How splendid! I can barely muster the patience to await the completion of these lads new finery! And here I admit to suprising my lovely young bride. She was not aware that I had determined to model my premiere Guard Regiment after the Regiment de Caribiniere du Roi and colour them and name them in her honor. She was quite delighted when Mr. Shaw unveiled this plate and secretly informed me that I had not seen all of her Paris purchases yet. I am considering acquiring blackened iron cuirasses for this regiment as well, as befits the premiere Guard Regiment of an Army such as mine, but will have to check the budget for such with young Shaw.

These are also very good . . . although they are a bit overshown by the Hussars (isn't that true in most armies?).
Very nice indeed.
