CHARITABLE ADVERTISING on Web Site There are many worthwhile charitable causes in existence, but we can only accept sponsorship or fundraising efforts on Fusilier Association websites, that specifically support approved Fusilier charities. This essentially means that it is acceptable to use these pages to seek sponsorship for The Fusiliers Aid Society (which includes Fallen Fusiliers), and The Fusilier Memorial fund only. We now have our own dedicated justgiving site (http://www.justgiving.com/fusiliersaidsociety), which you can use to help raise money for your cause. If you let RHQ (Asst Regt Sec) know the specific cause you are raising money for, it will be directed to the correct fund. Messages soliciting sponsorship for causes or charities other than the Fusilier ones mentioned above should not be placed on the message board and may be removed by the Webmaster.

The Battle of Minden
IP: 51.7.172.192


not know much of history,I asked my artificial friend
why the British were fighting this Historic battle,why were they there?
so he told me:
Seven Years' War: The Battle of Minden was a significant engagement in this global conflict (1756–1763), which pitted Great Britain and its allies (Prussia, Hanover) against France, Austria, and their allies.

Protection of Hanover: King George II of Great Britain was also the Elector of Hanover. France's invasion of Hanover was a direct threat to the British monarch's personal territory and a strategic move to gain an advantage in the war.

Anglo-German Coalition: The British forces were part of a combined army commanded by the Prussian-born Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick. This coalition also included Hanoverian, Hessian, and Prussian troops. Their goal was to counter the French offensive and protect Hanover from capture.

A decisive moment: The battle itself was a major victory for the Allied forces. Famously, a misunderstanding of orders led six British and two Hanoverian infantry battalions to charge head-on into a much larger force of French cavalry. Against all military expectations, the infantry held their ground and repelled the cavalry charges, leading to a decisive victory that secured Hanover and shifted the momentum of the war in that theatre.
