Defence of Smohain

 The Eastern end of the Allied line was held by Prince Bernhard's Brigade.  Papelotte and La Haye was held by green coated Nassauers of the 2nd Nassau Regiment (albeit with one battalion detached to Hougoumont).  To their left was the 28th Orange Nassau regiment in blue coats.


Here are some images showing Prince Bernhard's defensive line, with troops strung out quite thinly along the line in skirmish order, each company holding back a platoon in reserve.
