Insubordination. If the best dressed always want to be the generals, I'll give them a hard time., Nicolas Toussaint Charlet, 1825
A large group of children are playing at being soldiers; a boy without shoes holds up his hand and complains that the best dressed children are always the generals; two laughing soldiers smoking pipes, seated outside a tavern look on and another soldier leans out of a window. 1825
