The main idea of the poem is that the determination and strength of these soldiers in the face of danger are admirable qualities and that they should be honored. Tennyson uses imagery to describe the determination of these soldiers who were "volleyed and thundered stormed at with shot and shell", but continued to attack the Russians. The bravery of these soldiers is shown by the fact that these soldiers perseverance, even though they faced a lot of dangers. The soldiers charged "while horse and hero fell" and the fact that the Brigade was losing men all around them and they still were joyful shows their strength. Tennyson uses the line "charging an army, while all the world wondered", to show that the "world" is amazed at the bravery of these men who are continuing on. The strength of these soldiers is realized when "right through the line they broke", and started to win the battle. Next, the soldiers had to deal cannons and a strong Russian army and fought on until "they rode back, but not the “six hundred”. The theme of the poem was that the commendable qualities of these soldiers, such as bravery, strength, and determination, should be admired and as Tennyson said it best "Honor the charge they made! Honor the Light
