Re: Strongest army of the mid 1700's?
Not only did we take on the French and Indians by ourselves. After those uppity Englishmen decided to tax us for winning the war for them, we decided to beat them to. My Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great Granpappy was a private in the French and Injun war and a Lieutenant in the Revolution. He's told me stories.Originally Posted by Bopa the Magyar

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
