The Royal Scots. The Square at Quatre Bras, 1815, (1939)
The Royal Scots. The Square at Quatre Bras, 1815, (1939). The Royal Scots form a square with bayonets fixed to repulse the French. The Battle of Quatre Bras, 16 June 1815, was a preliminary engagement to the Battle of Waterloo, fought two days before the main battle. The Anglo-Dutch army of the Wellington fought against the left wing of the French Armee du Nord under Marshal Ney at Quatre Bras in Belgium, a strategically important crossroads. The outcome was a draw, but gave the French a strategic advantage in that Wellington was unable to assist Bluchers Prussian Army, who were being defeated by the main body of the French army at the Battle of Ligny. Both Wellington and Blucher were forced to withdraw northwards. From Battles for the Flag, a set of cards given away with British boys comic The Wizard. [D. C. Thomson & Co. Dundee, 1939]
