Here is the nineteenth patrons-only Dispatch. Topics include: the decriminalization of homosexuality, bayonet fighting, and Poles in the French army.

Don't forget to leave any questions for the next dispatch below. And once again: thank you for your support!

I gather from the other comments that you're sick - get well soon! I have a request, could you enable downloads for the audio on Patreon? I find Patreon's web player pretty janky and today (on Firefox on Android) it is not working at all. On other podcasts it's possible to download the audio and then I can listen in a better app.

Will we still get an episode focused on Napoleon's family members? Even on a Dispatch basis, it would be fun to catch up with the activities of Napoleon's siblings to-date in the narrative. Or maybe after this initial Spain 'chapter', we could pause to catch up with them. Thanks as always!

Get well soon! Question: what was skin care like during this time? Did soldiers have to deal with acne and if so what were common remedies?

2024-02-09 15:23:56 Hi Everett, hope you’re doing well. My question after listening to the latest episode is if there was any sort of organized civilian-led peace movement in England or France or really anywhere in Europe at this time that would be somewhat analogous to peace movements we see today? I thought your description of the devastation faced by civilians in this time was very powerful so that really pushed this question into my mind. Thanks so much for all you work on the series!

Hi, Everett, hope you’re well. I think you left out one of the principle uses of the bayonet as it turned the musket into a very long pike. Very effective when an infantry unit formed a square, and very terrifying for an attacking horse. An unintended benefit of the bayonet was that its weight on the end of the barrel made it more difficult to aim too high, which was a common problem in musketry. I absolutely agree with your assessment that very few wounds were caused by melee-style bayonet fighting. Thank you for a great podcast. (I majored in Military History at West Point.)
