Into the valley...

[Canada Phil]

For those interested in such things,

Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred
Cannon to right of them
Cannon to left of them
Cannon in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd
­Alfred, Lord Tennyson

It's a crazy world we live in when you think that "The Black Watch" may be about to do the modern day equivelent. Have we learnt bugger all in the last 150 years?
