"The Bravest of the Brave"
Ney was indeed a brave dashing Marshal, and lead attacks personally on hundreds of occasions. At Waterloo several horses were shot from under him, as he lead the futile cavalry charges against the British squares.
Ney was an able general as well as a brave one, though he was not as gifted as Davout or Lannes, he made up for it in his inspiring leadership and loyalty to the Emperor.
