Product description
Product description The 3rd Battalion of Detachments, struck from all official records, exemplified Brigadier General Alan Campbellβs view, βI have collected several detachments of recovered men belonging to Sir J. Mooreβs army, whom I found scattered in all directions, without necessaries, and some of them committing every possible excess that could render the name of a British soldier odious to the nation.β During the Douro campaign and capture of the city of Oporto in 1809, the 3rd Battalion had its first taste of action near the village of Grijo. There they crossed bayonets with the infamous French regiment, les Bouchers (the Butchers). The bloody encounter was also notable for the savage dog fight between Duchess, the 3rdβs bull terrier mascot, and the French poodle, Fifi, both animals leaving their mark.
