Troops) under the command of General Colbert, made of light cavalry squadron dedicated Dutch and Polish cavalrymen. Initially, the facility ranks were issued by various departments, and the Dutch were assigned only one Pole as an interpreter. Due to the strength of the patrol he was not directly attacked by the Cossacks, but "jerky" at night. Right at the beginning of the expedition Cossacks took up the entire facility consisting of Dutch, if I'm not mistaken only saved the Polish "translator". After this incident Colbert ordered the facility were mixed - half made up of Poles, and Dutch. Few, however, have helped, because I still died in the night when a szwoleżer, it almost certainly came on the 2nd Regiment. The situation has improved significantly only after Colbert ordered that the time worth the Dutch founded coats and hats Polish cavalrymen.Sławek Chomiczewskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05398821566489237951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561181956134839079.post-34986179663843062892012-06-25T10:24:57.879-07:002012-06-25T10:24:57.879-07:00Thanks again, friends, for the kind words.
