Todays wtf fact. After Napoleans defeat at Waterloo French Marshal Michel Ney went out like a real bad ass. Condemned to death by the Chamber of Peers he refused a blindfold and was allowed to command his own firing squad. The man whos nickname was le Brave des Braves, the bravest of the brave, final words were Soldiers, when I give the command to fire, fire straight at my heart. Wait for the order. It will be my last to you. I protest against my condemnation. I have fought a hundred battles for France and none against her... Soldiers, fire!
