I know you would notice, Mister Gettysburg. There are battles galore in military history, but not all of them are equal in importance (I'm sure you liked the battle of Nashville, though). And then you have those battles that are technically a victory, but a bitter one, as in Bull Run: Take Two ("Second Battle of Bull Run" is such a dull name"). Not to mention battles like Saragota, where...

I guess it all broke down with Saragota. I actually thought about using Waterloo, but decided to go with the Berezina instead. The whole campaign of Russia wasn't exactly the best idea in the world, and it has taken a pretty strong meaning in French as a plain noun. If you insist on a proper battle, I guess it'll have to be Traffalgar... or Agincourt, Crécy and L'Ecluse for a different theatre.
