Hi Mr. Cornwell.

If you have any extra time on your hands, how about giving us a short story on Sharpe at the battle of Coa bridge on July 24th.  That was some extremely hot fighting.  It was perhaps too small an engagement for a novel, but a short story would I think work nicely.  And the 95th Rifles were there (and took some serious losses).  Please think about this.
