I mean, the final siege of Constantinople in 1453 holds some historical resonance for me, but I see no reason to celebrate it.
Also, this thread will likely turn into a tiresome debate over Thermopylae between people who think 300 is history, and a smaller group who are actually familiar with the Persian War.

Also it is an important detail that a group of soldiers without any weapon runs through the heavily armed enemy soldiers only in order to keep them back for a while until the regular troops arrive and they all die.

"Quod Vult, Valde Valt"
Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P.
