Death of of Marshal Moncey (April 20, 1842)

[unverredumatcha]

Just went back from zumba with my mother and sisters. Now, i am randomly wandering, which marshal is interested in willing zumba and which one is not~?! Hmm~?

Give me your profound argument in which marshal belongs to which section, whether i am right or wrong about it. I also take criticism and funny yet eloquent joke of this chart hahahaha!

Btw, Napoleon is the doubtful section. He will do it if he is persuaded and begged.

Left: Gaetano Donizetti, Right: Marshal Moncey

On May 5, [Gaetano] Donizetti was present at the ceremony memorializing Napoleon on the twentieth anniversary of his death. Writing to Antonio Vasselli on May 6, he said: “Yesterday (May 5) I went to the funeral service for the death of Napoleon. It was touching to see all those who served: some of them even had the uniforms of that period, moth-eaten, threadbare, frazzled; many had had them made new. They kissed the lid, the imperial crown; they wept, and Moncey, the oldest marshal, who is almost a hundred years old, was in dress uniform.”

Context: The year was 1841. Marshal Moncey passed away a year later in 1842.

Moncey: It seems Iskierka has engaged the enemy!

Temeraire: *sighs* That's nothing out of the ordinary. Especially since I gave her a direct order not to.

La Barrière de Clichy. Défense de Paris, le 30 mars 1814, by Horace Vernet, 1820. The painting was commissioned by the goldsmith Jean-Baptiste-Claude Odiot, who, like Vernet, fought in the battle under Bon-Adrien Jeannot de Moncey. Odiot gave the work to the Chambre des Pairs in 1835. It was transferred to the musée du Luxembourg two years later, then to its current owner, the Louvre, in 1874.

This is thought to be a self-portrait of Vernet:

Procrastination can work wonders.

I have now finished the second chapter of my Temeraire fic. This chapter is a bit different to the last one, as it is more dragon centric. It also doesn't directly continue the plot line from the previous chapter, but focuses on the recruitment process for the militia.

As previously stated, please do point out any mistakes or plot holes you find, and I will try and fix them.
