The cry of "Huzzah for the company!" rings out after a desperate struggle against a determined foe. The exclamation "huzzah" has uncertain origins but is believed to be influenced by war cries from various languages, including Norse, Dutch, Russian, and Prussian. Historically, British infantry would give three huzzahs before a bayonet charge to build morale, a practice noted in Richard Holmes’ book "Redcoat: The British Soldier in the Age of Horse and Musket."
