"The Patriot"
Last night I was suspended between Heaven and Earth for three hours because I watched Mel Gibson give the British the nasty end of guerrilla warfare during the Revolutionary War in the South.
I did have my trusty .50 caliber flinter handy as I watched the movie. If others saw the film, I think many will agree that it had much historical accuracy. I did not understand why British Calvaryman Tarleton was called "Colonel Tavington"?
My readings indicate the Tory versus American turmoil was most vicious in the South. Thankfully, we had Greene and Morgan in the South after Gates pulled foot. Re-enact if you can because history is a living thing,
Adam
