Defence reform, the dashing Mr zu Guttenberg will discover, is a warofattrition, not a cavalry charge.
A donkey's tortured braying seems to be trumpeted directly inside, and every now and again the pounding of horses' hooves reverberate like a cavalry charge.
The cavalry charged into enemy positions.
The cavalry charged to the front.
Funny to think of me who has led cavalry charges and won RACES having a potato-sack like you in the saddle!
