As Washington confronted the British, Cornwallace had no choice but to surrender his hold on the colonies. And on that day true freedom began for The United States.

Interesting, just like in the day, when spectators would watch from afar
You can click the pice and get a panorama

I talked with the curator of a small civil war museum just west of Durham, NC. He was a volunteer as well, kept a full beard, ready fr the militia

But he was a surreptitious open minded fellow
I gave him an earful about my own military experience.

You couldn't stage a scene like that with urban chaos
or guerrilla warfare

this style of military maneuvers is also very theatrical
therefore the nostalgia
