Bulletins de l'Armée du Rhin

Soldats de l'Empire et de l'Armée du Rhin, Attention!

Announcements:

Spring has come and we have two things awaiting us -- apart from the annual spring/summer campaign, in which we tour round the continent, showing how it's done...

First of all; the website of La Grande Armée and the website of l'Armée du Rhin are being reconstructed, bringing the sites back to "normal" status. Col. Titchen has the honour of reconstruting the Grande Armée website.

Secondly; we have an upcoming tournament to start 1 April. I hope many of you have teamed up two by two, and I expect/hope one of AdR's teams will win, and that all of our teams will perform with honour.
