The French Invasion of the Highlands

Duchet's men are struck down by fever, malaria and dysentery. The medical services had budgeted for a maximum of 15 hundred casualties. They arrived at the first mountain passes and found them undefended. A little further on, there was a battle at samondri. And you know, we can't stop them, so the french stay down there in the disease ridden swamp when they could have marched into the highlands to i mean, this invasion is kind of a comedy of errors.
