One small addendum - I made the claim that none of the drummers were teenagers, shortly after discussing 18-yr-old Swedish drummer Henry Fogerberry! So that was an error but he is the only one!

My name is Martin Aaron, I'm a lecturer at University College London. Since the year 2000 I’ve been building a database of the British army at Waterloo. By compiling original records from the Public Record office and regimental archives, I’ve gathered information about each of the 33,000 British combatants in 1815. This podcast series examines that data.
