This war should have taught the lesson that milita is defensive and seems rarely successful when used for conquest.

It's fascinating to see Jefferson's belief in militias run headlong into reality.<br><br>It's also fascinating to realize that the Royal Navy was failing because they simply messed up at a fundamental level. On top too long and getting complacent it looks like.<br><br>Brock was a big loss. A capable man who knew the area. It's at least possible that Harrison's campaign's would have gone less well if Brock was around.

One of the men who was heavily injured in some of these riots of 1812 was Harry Lighthorse Lee father of the more famous confederate general Robert E.Lee of Gettysburg theme

The US military was in a sad state in the War of 1812. No wonder the White House burned. You don't need a multi-trillion dollar military-industrial complex, you just need the right weapons for the job, and a competent military to use them.

Isn't it sad that creators have to give a disclaimer now that an actual human made a video?

For those curious about Queenston Heights, It's a part of the Niagara Escarpment with Niagara Falls being around 10km away. Hopefully that can help contextualize the terrain.

Interesting to see a YOUNG Winfield Scott showing up at this part of the story.
