yeah but they were one of the finest on earth
id say maybe the british army was not a meritocracy like the British navy was
thats not even her voice though is it
isnt alot of what drives this the voice?
yeah joe there was a lot more room for people being promoted for actual capability in the RN than in the British army
the army still had commissions in the mid 19th century
so there were a bunch of old rich retards commanding at the crimea
yeah i think a british officers commision in the army was the equalivent to a million bucks today
some regiments like the hussars would be that expensive, it was mental
whereas the french and prussians were very educational approach to all of it
had academies and so forth
and leaned more towards meritocracies
france for sure after the revolution
true
people like ney were from families that were poor as dirt
napeleon wasnt rich either
ye
based napoleon tbqh
but the french did have military academies even before the revolutions
just not opened to merit and poorer classes
although the only real avenue for non nobility who wanted to be officers was the artillery
best ship
because artillery officers actually needed skill
to operate arty
