RHA - Mercer's Troop
-
Narrated by:

By:
A very special episode first published on the anniversary of Waterloo. Special guest Richard Heffer, who starred as Mercer in the 1970 epic Waterloo kindly reprises his role to read the lines of 2nd Captain Alexander Cavalie Mercer, who commanded G-Troop at Waterloo.
Despite being the least experienced troop at Waterloo, G-Troop is more famous than all other British artillery troops and batteries combined due to the extraordinarily thorough journal kept by Mercer. This episode not only examines the campaign through his words but also considers his unusually compassionate nature.
Sincere thanks to Richard Heffer, Jonathan Durbin, and Paul Hayward.
