>>C'est magnifique. Mais, ce n'est pas la guerre.<< "Hideous blunder" is the way the London Times put it at the time. The poem does make it clear. "Six hundred" rhymes with "blundered." I don't think blindly following misunderstood orders to your death and the death of 247 men out of 637 (don't know how many were only wounded) is admirable. I agree with Patton - the goal of our military is to make the other side die for their country.
