Victorian Scots Grays Napoleonic War Waterloo Sabertache
Victorian Scots Grays Napoleonic War Waterloo Sabertache displaying the captured French Eagle from the Battle of Waterloo. The Royal Scots Greys' (2nd Dragoons) charge on June 18, 1815, stands as one of Britain's most storied military moments. Sergeant Charles Ewart's capture of the Imperial Eagle belonging to the French 45th Regiment during the fierce engagement earned the regiment the celebrated nickname "Birdcatchers." The triumphant advance came with profound sacrifice—the Greys' momentum carried them deep into enemy lines, where they faced devastating counterattacks from French Cuirassiers and Lancers. The regiment sustained catastrophic losses, with nearly 50% casualties among the 442 men engaged, leaving 198 fallen. This sabertache endures as a powerful emblem of their valor and the brutal cost of glory on the battlefield.
