I’ve read more than once that the tactic of attacking from the side brush, as depicted in “The Patriot”, is a real re-enactment.

well the Loyalist sure did...

My ancestors were in Butler’s Rangers and the “Indian department” where they were paid extra as interpreters...they had lived amongst the Indians so they must have known something about one on one fighting etc...

Ask the Brits how they liked that march back to Boston from Concord?

One year I went on Patriots Day weekend to see how British officers conducted the retreat by moving skirmish lines front and back, left and right, to keep the main body intact amidst the narrow road surrounded by woods. Fascinating.

Yes he did. Here is a photograph taken during the amphibious spec ops river crossing. Not shown: MLRS battery fire flying overhead into the Hessian ranks.

Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys?

Was the capture of Fort Ticonderoga and the commandeering of their cannons a guerilla operation?

What was the name of the intrigue/espionage series that came out a few years ago about spies for the Revolution? I don’t recall the name, but it was very good.
