Didn't know the French were involved so learned something there thanks. I guess everyone else every involve got hammered. One newfoundland letter said hundreds of bits were killed during a landing killed
before they ever fired a shot. Newfoundland landed in Sept and the book you linked to said force
pulled out in Dec. . But newfoundland left in Jan so they must have really been rear guard about half the force died shot and disease with many cases of frostbite from wet frozen feet
