Major Richard Sharpe, 95th Rifles!!



"Richard Sharpe, 95th Rifles!"

Ummmmm, as I have been reading Sharpe series, I tend to image a lot about Sharpe's 95th rifles' actions. Even I tend to a wee bit feel like Richard Sharpe especcially when I am in a hard mission in my daily life, and then I tend to pretend like holding a rifle and swinging a sword :) hahahahahaha.

Sharpe is a series of novel writing about success story of an ambitious and generous British man called Richard Sharpe. Sharpe was originally born as an illegitimate son, and he volunteered as a private in British Army during Napoleonic War period. He started from Private, and then he has been gradually promoted to Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captain, and then to Major. In Sharpe's Waterloo, he was finally promoted to Lieutenant Colonel!

This novel and DVD is highly recommendable to practice the English of Millitary, Social Class, Romance and historical aspects of Napoleonic period! Highly recommendable!!



Rifles! Make Ready! Fire!!!!!!!!
