    PostSubject: Excuse funny !   Excuse funny ! EmptyThu Jul 11, 2013 10:22 am

    Hi all

    Chelmsford realised that he would need to account to the government and to history for the disaster. He quickly fixed blame on Durnford, claiming Durnford disobeyed his orders to fix a proper defensive camp – although there is no evidence such an order was issued and there would hardly have been time for Durnford to entrench. Further, it had been Chelmsford's decision not to entrench the camp, as it was meant to be temporary.Excuse funny !

    Cheers

    Pascal the Wink
