Something's just occured to me; I know the perfect soundtrack for the mindset of the aristocratic British General Staff around this period, and here it is. [it's from slightly later in the 19th Century, but that's not important, right?] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2OcbeGqbpU

When doing Lies, I'm hoping Rob will take some time to talk about the Crimean War from the Hapsburg perspective -- how the 1848 Revolutions in setting the stage for the whole conflict, the nervous neutrality of their Empire, and how the war almost escalated to a point that the Congress of Europe would have fallen early (as it did in WWI).

When did the Brits finally undertake reforms to their officer structure if not in the wake of the Crimean War? Did they make it all the way to Flanders with the bought officerships, to Dunkirk? Are those videos of Prince Harry running off to deploy in a jet mid interview around because they never actually formally reformed this system of getting promoted to officer and commanding rank?

US observers in the Crimean War also came away with new opinions on the use of cavalry. their limited use, and events like the charge of the light brigade, convinced many in the US Army that cavalry was becoming obsolete. This is partially why the Union didn't have a very large cavalry force until the near end of the Civil War.

7:07 Maps continue to present problems. Greece was independent by this time, which IIRC you mentioned in Episode 1, although they wouldn't get the northern areas like Epirus and classical Macedonia until the Balkan Wars in the early 20th century.

They abolished purchased commissions in the 1860s but the influence of the nobility never really went away. As late as WWII the British overall commander in Southeast Asia, Lord Mountbatten, was a cousin of the King. Britain is a very silly country

"Palmerston"... that name sounds familiar. He was Charles Elliot's boss when he was Secretary of War during the First Opium War!
