Blücher

The term Blücher has multiple historical contexts, primarily referring to:

Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher was a Prussian field marshal who played a significant role during the Napoleonic Wars. Born on December 16, 1742, in Rostock, he was known for his decisive leadership, particularly at the Battle of Waterloo, where his timely intervention helped secure the victory against Napoleon Bonaparte.
Blücher's military career included his participation in the War of the Fourth Coalition and the War of the Sixth Coalition, where he became known for his aggressive tactics and his famous rallying cry "Vorwärts!" (Forward!).
His nickname was "Marschall Vorwärts" (Marshal Forward) due to his constant urge to advance.

The Blücher-class Armored Cruiser was a type of armored cruiser built for the Imperial German Navy in the early 20th century. The class was named after Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher.
The cruiser SMS Blücher was the only ship of its class completed. It participated in several naval engagements during World War I, including the Battle of Dogger Bank, where it was sunk.
Constructed at the Kaiserliche Werft Wilhelmshaven, the ship was armed with 8 × 21 cm (8.3 in) guns and had a displacement of 15,842 tons.

The name "Blücher" has been used for various military ships, streets, and even characters in literature and film, often reflecting a sense of German military heritage.
In Young Frankenstein, the name "Frau Blücher" is used as a comedic element, where the mere mention of her name causes horses to whinny in terror, a humorous nod to the Prussian general's fierce reputation.
