[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 44150, member: 54"][I]Old Fuss and Feathers doesn't look as if he were a very jolly man... [/I] Army officers had to pay for their own horse fodder back then and at times for junior officers they may actually have had to decide whether the horse or the officer got to eat on a given day; the horse most likely won, u know what happens if they skip meals. Also, deodorant hadn't yet been invented, nor was daily bathing always possible.[/QUOTE]
