I was reading about the revolutionary war earlier and I find it amazing how the Americans won. The biggest thing the had was the will to fight and a strong leader. George Washington was that,He didn't expect his men to do something he wouldn't do himself. He didn't send troops across the Delaware, he lead troops across the Delaware. He trusted his troops as much as they relied on him. Washington had no physical special treatment, he lived through what his troops lived through. They didn't have nice uniforms, a lot of food nor medicine or ammo while the British had enough food to hold parties and balls. Most of the time they were without shoes yet they still kept fighting, it's amazing what they went through to win their freedom. If you think about it, it was kinda their advantage over British army. The British hired mercenaries to fight for them for a living, you so sometimes it occurred to them that the money wasn't worth the work and quit when times were tough. But Americans fought for freedom for the wife, children, family and friends, which is always worth fighting for. So no matter what they would never give up the fight for anyone.

Greetings-
ReplyDeleteI hope this message finds you well. When you talk about the idea of "strong leadership," I think you want to bring some more of the history in there. How was Washington a strong leader? What did he do that was so unique? How did he provide the will to win, the desire for success? I feel that more needs to be given according to these ideas and more history should be present. The blogging idea is there. The blogging voice is there, but the historical analysis is needed. Bring the history into this and you are set (Specific examples, details, reference points from the history.)
All best.
