russians
in this charge, cardigan formed up his unit and charged the length of the valley of the balaclava, under fire from russian batteries in the hills. the charge of the light brigade caused 278 casualties of the 700-man unit. the light brigade was memorialised in the famous poem by alfred, lord tennyson, "the charge of the light brigade". although traditionally the charge of the light brigade was looked upon as a glorious but wasted sacrifice of good men and horses, recent historians say that the charge of the light brigade did succeed in at least some of its objectives. the aim of any cavalry charge is to scatter the enemy lines and frighten the enemy off the battlefield. the charge of the light brigade so unnerved the russian cavalry, which had been routed by the heavy brigade, that the russians were set to full-scale flight.
