2 Charge of the Light Brigade
Атака лёгкой кавалерии 25 октября 1854 г. была одним из эпизодов военных столкновений между русской и британско-турецкой армиями в Крымской войне, где не было победителей и побеждённых. Это сражение стало притчей во языцех главным образом из-за числа погибших и пострадавших: из участвовавших 673 человек 113 были убиты и 134 ранены. 475 лошадей также были убиты. Атака стала знаменитой благодаря одноимённой поэме Альфреда Теннисона, которую в начале XX в. почти каждый английский школьник знал наизусть. Эта атака была прискорбным примером ошибки, совершённой главнокомандующим и командующим кавалерией, и не должна была состояться вообще.English-Russian dictionary of expressions > Charge of the Light Brigade
