Interesting fella Napoleon, would think nothing of sacrificing huge numbers of men in pursuit of his aims but regarded his soldiers as "my children"

What did he say when someone said is it worth it after he was wounded "Glory may be fleeting, but obscurity is forever"

La Garde meurt, elle ne se rend pas!

Dino de Laurentis decided to use 'merde' in his film mind! I guess it sits better with the audience!

Bizarrely, the chap who plays von Muffling in the film is John Savident - better know as Fred, from Coronation Street!

Gus' tedious link!
