The tactic used at Cowpens very much mirrors the tactic used by Hannibal against the Romans at Cannae. Feining a collapse in the center, tricking the enemy into a push which results in them being encircled, with fast cavalry (or dragoons in the case of Cowpens) completing the encirclement on the flanks. It is a brutally effective tactic when properly carried out even to this day.
You should teach a seminar on that shit damn what a well spoken paragraph. As a guntoting american knowing the british were so concerned about "gentlemenly warefare" even in ww2 makes me smile.
Your analysis and understanding of the times is truly awesome. Many Americans today don’t even understand the concept that it was a different time and there were different rules back in the day. People here, love to judge the past with present eyes.
Also, even as an American. It’s hard for me to believe he survived 500 lashes. 100 is crazy let alone 5x that amount.
As an example of just how much and how long the British/UK were OBSESSED with "Gentlemanly Warfare"; while the Germans put their best troops in their Machine Gun Corps which made them HIGHLY effective, the UK used their Machine Gun Corps effectively as a dumping ground for everyone they didn't want or like like ignorant soldiers, trouble makers, etc.
The Horse Calvary, Dragoons, Infantry, etc were "Honorable Positions" whereas Machine Gunners were seen as dishonorable, cowardly, all the negative social descriptions basically. (Except when used against indigenous/native persons that had something, or lived somewhere they wanted; then they were VERY fine with it. They were SO ok with it the Brits literally wrote a song 8n the late 1800's about the Maxim Gun allowing them to colonize the world more and tame "Savages" encountered IIRC).
An example of this is during a particular field exercise a UK Soldier manning one of these newfangled Machine Guns managed to ambush and wipe out an entire Calvary Unit (Don't remember the size, could've been a whole ass company of 200-ish men, or just a platoon of around 20-ish). Expecting some praise or a pat on the back, the Calvary Leader admonished and degraded him in front of everyone; insulted that this "Stupid, Ungentlmanly Machine Gunner" dared to think this was something possible that could happen in "Real Battles" and his entire victory was essentially erased so it could be overwritten to achieve "The Proper Result"
This was how Britan, the Larger UK, and Entire Extended-Commonwealth as a whole generally, would enter WWI in 1914.
Within a year, a LOT of those first excited men that arrived in 1914 had been cut-down by those very Machine Guns they despised and deemed of little value, manned by Elite well oiled teams of German Soldiers handpicked from some of the best men they had specifically just to man Machine Guns (MG08 flavored); and that was if the Artillery didn't get them first.
In addition to this in the early years the Entente generally had terrible, shallow, and just poor quality trenches in general as "We're on the offensive! Don't waste our militarys valuable time with useless things like *digging in* and *fortifying* your little trenches, we'll be advancing again shortly anyways". Meanwhile, the Germans were in the process of building deep and extensive, heavily fortified trenches with concrete bunkers/pillboxes, underground command, communications, and aid stations along with underground concrete barracks for the soldiers to (Mostly) safely sleep in. (This isn't universal for All German trenches, but was much more common than Entente/Allied Trenches; as the Germans viewed theirs as permanent, while the Entente as mentioned viewed their as "Only Temporary").
Even ALL the way to WWII this "Gentlemanly Thing" was an issue, Britan suffered an ENORMOUS shortage of Sub Machineguns because they'd initially dismissed them as just "Gangster Guns" and of little tactical value. They only realized their value shortly before the war upon which they started purchasing as many Thompsons as they could from the US as they could, but The only indigenous SMG they had early in the war was the Lanchester which was just a reverse engineered copy of the Geeman MP-28 which itself was just an updated (In 1928) MP-18,I from WWI, on top of this, it was almost entirely only adopted by the Royal Navy.
This is why the M1921/28, M1928, and M1928A1 Thompsons were so prolific among UK troops early war, at least until the various models of STEN Gun were designed and production could ramp up enough to fill most of the demand and they could stop buying the extremely expensive at the time Thompson ($200 per gun, even the US started replacing it in 1943 in exchange for the extremely cheap M3/M3A1 "Grease Gun" [ $15per M3/M3A1, so for every SINGLE M1/M1A1 you could make 13x M3's], Which they finally made enough of part way through 1945 to standardize on the M3/M3A1's [Thompsons were still used by the US, even all the way up until its limited use in Vietnam, the military just stopped buying new ones in favor of the M3/M3A1 in 1945. Interestingly, M3's were still mounted inside USMC M60A3 "Pattons" during the First Gulf all the way in 1991 (They were never named Pattons, but looked similar enough to the M48 "Patton III" people still considered and called it one). The M60 Turrets had brackets to hold M3's for the crew as PDW's, so if they got knocked out they could unclasp them and have a weapon as they fall back; so since the mount existed they just kept the M3's for them around until the M60 was finally retiredby the US] ).
Even then(Back to UK and WWII), for the rest of the war while it wasn't the norm; it wasn't uncommon either, to run across the occasional squad leader, tank commander, Royal Commando, Royal Marine, or SAS/SBS member shouldering a 50rd Drum loaded Thompson (Or either 20rd or 30rd Stick Magazines if they preferred or couldn't get drums).
(The Simplified M1 and M1A1 Thompsons most used by US Troops [They also had a lot of M1928's and 28A1's at the start of the war, but once production got going the simplified M1 and particularly M1A1 Thompsons were much more common for US Forces] were incompatible with the Drum magazines as they were deemed to heavy, cumbersome, rattled loudly, and were generally less reliable than standard stick magazines; at first only the 20rd magazines were available and what UK troops without a drum would've had as the 30rd stick mag didn't exist until made in late 1941 by the US).
Can I get a TLDR?
I live in Morgan County and Daniel Morgan is not an unusual First and Middle Name in USA. He is not forgotten (although not as well known as he deserves).
Our old history books probably have people like this but its unlikely our new ones do. The teachers teaching the youth are often not intrested in teaching about freedom and its high price. Its mostly just the low spots of US history taught and their looking for someone to blame. They will ask why something bad happened but not give an answer for whatever reason or not know and lean to the point the people were bad. The new teachers often dont know these people and could not teach about them even if they decided they wanted to teach on the subject which it is not likely they would want to unless they get invaded with good ideas. The standard public school today is used as a tool for a party and the graduates go on into media and govenment to echo the same things their teachers said as a feedback loop.
I don’t think you understand how big stealing a horse is it’s not like stealing a lambo to this day you can still be hung for stealing an Amish persons horse if the Amish push it and the judge agrees just like back then stealing a horse is stealing their livelihood
