Capt Jinks Rides To War

The rapid expansion of Rebel forces has left them short of Brigadiers. So it was that when Captain Jinks reported for duty and was overheard boasting about how he had never lost a battle, he was swiftly promoted to Acting Brigadier of Cavalry.

Captain Jinks, never able to resist demonstrating his charm and wit to the fair sex, even on his way to battle, does get the sort of response he had hoped for.

Of course, the merest inquiry would have revealed that he'd never even seen a battle.

The battle is now lost and won,
but alas the report is not yet done.
