Right on the money. An era where the monied class had picnics on hilltops overlooking interminable trench warfare.
It is time we gain a new understanding of what 'their' rules are and begin applying them evenly.

the Officers still were in the middle of battle. Leading the charge with their sword drawn, they still had that martial nobility idea. It wasn't until you were dying in ditches in WW1 that started to change. Though most of the pre Napoleonic Officers were only officers because they bought their commission, thus there was a major social class different between the commissioned officers and the enlisted.
