Isaac Brock's Gaudy Sash

Origin
Major-General Sir Isaac Brock KB was a British Army officer and administrator from Guernsey assigned to Lower Canada in 1802 and throughout the War of 1812. Brock's actions, especially his success at Detroit earned him a knighthood, membership in the Order of Bath, several accolades and the nick name 'The Hero of Upper Canada'. Though a great leader he was killed at the Battle of Queenston Heights, which was considered a British victory regardless of losing Brock in the field. The main reason Brock's men followed him anywhere was because of his philosophy of never ordering men where he would not lead them so when it was time to attack Queenston Heights he led the charge on foot. Heavy fire from the opposition worried his men however Brock pushed the assault on moving his men through the attack through artillery strikes with no casualties. However because of his height, actions, uniform and sash presented to him by his ally Tecumseh he was made a target of an American soldier who shot Brock in the chest, killing him.
