D'Artagnan..waaaay after the fact

Just struck me, as the song came up in my random shuffle, that D'Artagnan was the main character in The Three Musketeers (a movie I saw, I think, after our original comments on Themeless, The New Black). I went back and checked out our comments. It appears that Mixdorf had already discovered the connection.

This is just a factual correction, then. Mixdorf mentions that D'Artagnan "was the principle character of The Three Musketeers, but not an actual musketeer himself." On the contrary, in both the fictionalized account and in real history, D'Artagnan was, in fact, very much a Musketeer-their captain, even.
