Is it true that British officers strode around the battlefield under heavy fire as if out for a stroll? Whom should we believe?

I didn't know whether to believe the tales I heard of officers behaving as though they hadn't noticed that they were under fire, but the evidence mounted up. It may have some practical application too, and might not just be a symptom of pointless bravado.

I'm not claiming that this bizarre behaviour is completely unique to British officers, but they do seem to surprise people with it more than most. I know some people will assume that I am saying "all foreign officers ducked" because that's YouTube, but I am not.
