Det är väl detta som är lite av charmen med historia, massor av paradoxer och intriger...världens största tvåloperavarjag skrev:Jajamensan! Lite skojigt - att Marinkårens officerare faktiskt bär ett 'arabiskt Mamelucksvärd' - men så är det.

NIL's fråga, Varjag
Ok, en fråga då:
Vilken historisk händelse är det som beskrivs nedan och vem ledde attacken?
Early on the morning of August 21, XXXX descended from XXXX and attacked XXXX at the head of a combined force of as many as 450 guerrillas. Senator Lane, a prime target of the raid, managed to escape through a cornfield in his nightshirt, but the XXXX, on XXXX orders, killed 183 men and boys "old enough to carry a rifle", dragging many from their homes to execute them before their families. The ages of those killed ranged from as young as 14 all the way up to 90 When XXXX men rode out at 9 a.m., most of XXXX buildings were burning, including all but two businesses. His raiders looted indiscriminately and robbed the town's bank.
