I've an interest in the Second World War , particularly the lesser known actions of the Eastern Front . Also, European history, basically from Karl der Große to Gustavus Adolphus thru to the Seven Year's War , Franco-Prussian War and World Wars I and II.
The nickname comes from the Ansbach-Bayreuth dragoon regiment which saved Frederick the Great at the Battle of Hohenfriedberg , 4 June 1745. Their charge resulted in the capture of 2,500 Austrian troops and 67 regimental flags.
I think i'll take a break from the WWII articles, which seem to be quite controversial. I've recently been working on some Napoleonic articles. I want to work my way through the 1809 Danube Campaign. I've already completed the Battle of Teugen-Hausen and am working on the La Grande Armée article along with User:R.D.H. (Ghost In The Machine) . Oh, and i'm also a Goon .
And Laura is the cutest, coolest girl in the world!!
