Blenheim
The decisive battle of the War of the Spanish Succession, 1702-1705. The Duke of Malborough leads a mixed English-Dutch army to link up with the Holy Roman Empire's army at the Danube. Between them, they handed Marshal Marsin and his French and Bavarian army its backside.
A fine example of yet another occasion when the slovenly Frogs were given a richly deserved slapping.
