Richard the Lionheart by Brian Palmer.
Richard the Lionhearts tactical skills and military training played a substantial role in the capture of Acre in 1191 by the Crusaders. But Richard the Lionheart was ruthless and after the capture of the city he marched 2,700 Muslim soldiers onto the road of Nazareth and in front of the Muslim army positions, had them executed one by one. But Richard the Lionheart was up against a great leader in Saladin and the crusades did not always go his way. After he negotiated the Treaty of Jaffa with Saladin and secured the granting of special rights of travel around Palestine and in Jerusalem for Christian pilgrims, Richard the Lionheart started his journey back to England in 1192. He was shipwrecked, and captured by the German Emperor Henry VI, only being released after a 150,000 mark ransom was paid. This money was raised by taxes in England.

Taking over command of the British Northern Army in 1777, Lt Gen Burgoyne began a march to Albany to join forces with Lt Gen Sir William Howe. After taking Fort Ticonderoga on route he learned that Howe was leaving for Pennsylvania. Becoming desperately short on supplies he decided to press on the Albany regardless but found the road blocked by a Continental army under Maj Gen Horatio Gates. Burgoyne decided not to engage the enemys position frontally but to turn their left at Freemans Farm. After a day of fierce fighting the British held the field but at a heavy price in casualties. On the 7th October the Colonial army, after receiving continual reinforcements attacked Howes position (the battle became known as Bemis Heights) and he was forced to retire to Saratoga.

| The
12th (Suffolk Regiment) at the Battle of Minden. 1st August 1759 by Brian Palmer.
During
the Seven Years War (1756 - 63) a large French army of 52,000 men
commanded by Marshal Contades moved from the Rhine to take Minden and
threaten the Electorate of Hanover, one of Britain's allies in the
war. Ferdinand of Brunswick commanding an allied army consisting
of British, Brunswick, Hanoverians and Hessen - Cassell troops numbering
42,000 stood in their way. The battle began at first light with
the allies forming up in 8 columns preparing to advance. Due to a
misunderstanding of orders two brigades, which included the 12th, went
into the attack before the rest of the line had properly formed.
With drums beating and colors flying they launched a frontal attack on
French cavalry, and against all odds hled firm and threw them back in
confusion. By this time the rest of the infantry had arrived in
support and the French army was routed. Minden is remarkable for
this unique attack by infantry in line against a mass of cavalry.
