THE PRUSSIAN HUSSARS WERE OF AVERAGE HEIGHT AND RODE ON SMALLER BUT AGILE HORSES. THEY WERE NOT AS DISCIPLINED AND TRAINED AS DRAGOONS AND NOT AS STRONG AND ROBUST AS THE CUIRASSIERS, BUT THE HUSSARS WERE THE MOST DASHING. THEY PARTICIPATED IN THE BOLDEST ACTIONS, WENT THROUGH THE MOST DIFFICULT SITUATIONS, SKIRMISHED AND SCOUTED. THE HUSSARS DISTINGUISHED THEMSELVES IN NUMEROUS BATTLES, INCLUDING HEILSBERG, LEIPZIG, MOCKERN, LIGNY AND AT WATERLOO (BELLE-ALLIANCE).
