Descriptionof Fighting General Cambronne
Manufacturer

He fought in Spain and was then reassigned to the Grande Armée. During Napoleon's Russian campaign in 1812, he commanded the third regiment of Volunteers of the Guard and took part in the Battle of Bautzen, the Battle of Dresden and the Battle of Leipzig, before being promoted to Général de brigade after the Battle of Hanau. The Battle of Waterloo was his undoing.

Pierre Jacques Etienne Cambronne was one of the French heroes of Waterloo. He became a Lieutenant General in Napoleons Imperial Guard and led his men into action at the Battle of Waterloo in June 1815. Towards the end of the battle he was wounded as he stood in the midst of one of his battalions squares. As the surrounding British called on him to surrender, Cambronne replied tersely, "Merde!" Other more polite sources say he responded with "The Guard dies it does not surrender!" In French of course. This new K&C figure portrays the defiant Cambronne, sword in hand and with fierce anger in his eyes... Personally, I think he shouted, "Merde!"
