Look up the Charge of the Light Brigade and the Crimean War on Wikipedia for the answers you seek...

@toytuner Hell yeah. Scouts out and like always scouts lead the way. Hooah

(silly ipad change it and sent it before i finished) I meant Balaclava battle itself and the Charge of light brigade, a truly remarkable moment of battle worth to be remembered. Strange thing is, that previously I refer to the same article on Wikipedia then read about "The thin red line" but didn't remembered about two cavalry charges. Thanks again!

@aziggen1 Thank you for a tip! I've just read about Balaclavas

Do a search for the poem "Battle of the Light Brigade" by Alfred Lord Tennyson....tells the story of the battle of Balaclava in the Crimean war.

Tumbs up for Corb Lund and this song! Can't get enought of listening it continiously for past three days!
But could somebody explain to me the following words in this song:
"Mine was not to reason why, mine was but to do and die
At Crimea with the charging light brigade".
I'd tried to clarify to myself facts, mentioned in this song, and got almost everything (even including Mayerthorpe tragedy), but this is still a mistery to me. What exact noteable cavalry action took place at Crimea and when?

love this song
