Summary edit
Description18 June 1815 – Waterloo – Mont-Saint-Jean, Museum.jpg |
English: N. Buonaparte (1769-1821) is responsible for 10,000 deaths and more than 35,000 wounded – all on that one and single day, 18 June 1815. To look after so many casualties, all houses, farms, churches which could provide shelter were requisitioned, all the way from the battlefield to Braine-l'Alleud and Brussels. Mont-Saint-Jean Farm rose to prominence for having been selected as headquarter of the British Medical Staff, as a 1981 tablet recalls at its entrance gate : ► (File:18 June 1815 – Waterloo – Mont-Saint-Jean, Tablet.jpg).
