Delaware crossing


Many of the men didn't have shoes and left a trail of blood on the 9 mile march to Trenton. That was the lowest point morale wise of the continental army and those guys were still pushing it to the limit.

That part of the world is hopeless. We have to stop dealing with them. Stop letting them leave the area as well.

It's a couple scenes but the death of Thomas followed by the revenge always struck me hard.

I'm not being rude I'm genuinely curious but what has Meta/Facebook done successfully outside of social media? The Horizon World and VR stuff was a colossal flop.
Not paying to see that in a movie theater. If it's on a streaming service I have at the time I'll give it a watch.

That’s the tough part. Because after they take the abandoned Fort Duquesne and make it back to Virginia Washington resigns. Doesn’t put a uniform on again until the Revolution.
I have over 40 ancestors with service in the Revolution.

Many of them were scouts and militia on the frontier in what is now northern WV and western PA.

Accurately shows the ambition he had was met with heavy failure that started a global war. Followed by his redemption at the Battle of the Monongahela.

They did change the story of his relationship with Sally Fairfax to fit a love story angle in the movie. George was 16 when Sally was married. They make it look like she’s unmarried when George first meets her. There are many letters he wrote to her when she was already married though.

I wish there would have been a ~1 minute scene with a young Daniel Boone who was a wagoner on Braddock’s expedition to Fort Duquesne. But overall I thought it was great.
Most of us know this isn't going to get better peacefully. It's going to get worse before it gets better.

If mankind was infallible communism could be beautiful. But alas sin entered the world which makes communism not function in our world.

Sadly they are smart enough to go slower than that yet. They're going to go after Christian white people first. Once they kill us off they'll turn on the alphabet losers. Right now they are useful idiots to them.
These are just sad people who are angry at the world because 90% of the population is more attractive and intelligent than them.

Hey, if their religion works for them and their values don’t conflict with mine for how our children get raised, then I don’t see the problem. I grew up in a mixed faith marriage where we attended services at both religions, celebrated both sets of holidays and traditions, and we got to choose which one to practice when we were old enough to make that choice ourselves.


Yeah people usually are comfortable with lukewarm.
