Salute to all the forgotten men who died cold and alone while doing performing acts of heroism…. Enjoy Valhalla, your memory may not exist but your spirit of fighting lives

I must say, this segment of your channel covering just over 100 years of the American military is one of my favorites. Though I am not for war itself, The military had made Americans free with defeating the UK twice on our own soil during their attempted take over. I respect the American military for their efforts here and I have high interest in history of the civil war itself on how everything came to be. America had truly the best founding fathers and military in the world. Now in regards the revolutionary war, I myself am a duel citizen British American with living a couple times growing up in both Countries since birth. Being that the majority of my family is British that actually comes from North West England where George Washington was actually born himself, the revolution war had always stirred up comical arguments within my family. The British in general had never respected the American Independence Day Celebrations when they learn about it as the British where I come from flat out hates the fact the British troops with a Professional organized military under the king was ever defeated by Americans as the British also feel they had the best military in the world and they still do think this way. My mum who is British used to tease my father who is American on giving him a lot of task to complete. My father really celebrated independence day such as I also do and though my mum rarely ever went to the celebrations, my father had taken me to the events while broadcasting to my British family that he was re naming Independence day to " *Free From A Brit Day* " and he did. My mum used to say the Americans only beat the British because of the size of England in comparison to the size of the United States but my father always came back with the reply saying that is true except when the British attacked both times, they had a completely organized military overseen by the king and America only had 13 tiny colonies being outnumbered who only lived on the Eastern Shore board of the USA before America itself was ever really explored in addition to the American military just being established without any formal training. With seeing that America only had 10 sharp shooters of their time to serve according to this video at first, I must say the American defeating the British both times was a impressive task. So yes, we had a lot of fun arguments here with this but in all honesty, most British hate this part of history and growing up in England, I was highly disrespected by many in England due to this. Most British on their own soil disrespected and even attacked Americans but when they come to America, they are two faced and won't say anything. Though it is not common, it does occur. They pretty much attacked when they found out that I am a duel citizen and again only at times, it was a rough life growing up there but generally speaking, if they did not meet my father, they thought I was Irish with my accent being a British American hybrid accent so that kinda saved me from being bullied. Today there is still a lot of hatred from the blokes in the UK upon Americans however the females are more understanding. They are just very territorial in a sense and hate outsiders on their own soil. Being the majority of my family being British, people in my area ended up respecting those in my family but it taken time. Most countries also will bash Americans online but all of them wish to come here to America at the same time being jealous of what America has to offer, go figure.

US Marine here studying military history. In the mid 1840's, the US invaded Mexico via an amphibious landing in Veracruz. In that group there were 3 Officers involved in that campaign. Grant, Lee and Jackson to name a few (quite impressive to say the least). No wonder Mexico lost. However; 15 years later, the aforementioned Officers would raise to the rank of Generals and would end up fighting each other.

Damn. This has better cinematography in the battle sequences than some Hollywood “historical” productions.

No words can express my appreciation respect for our brave soldiers that r the reason we get to live our blessed life's thank u for ur service God bless 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Thank you Statue of Liberty for not losing the historical evidence of 1776 of the 4th of July the official day and year that the United States army was established. For all those historians out there of the respected history of the historical evidence that had demonstrated in national monuments that could not be removed.

Boston born 1960 with many relatives who've fought in WW1 up until the Gulf war I've been keenly aware of the men who sacrificed all for their country, my first day of school 1966 we'd stand, hand over heart and pledge allegiance to the USA every morning looking at our giant flag. God bless America 🇺🇸

Well the American Army it's been around since 1700 inform of Rogers Rangers in the British Colonials they fought the French and Indian Wars protecting America now 1775 the formation of the United States Army which several of these men that fought in the French and Indian war did join and we're highlighted in the movie Patriot Mel Gibson's version not sagal's version

Basically Americans went from being the colonized into the colonizers as the unconstitutional standing army grew.

HOO RAH

Marines have a different name for members of the army.

God bless all our services men and women

We’re still slaves with privileges.

I never see any american soldiers use swords or arrows but guns instead since the 1st day of history

The Union States had a population of more than 20 million people. The Confederate States, barely 9 million. Yet it took the North more than 4 years to get the South to surrender, and then that surrender was conditional. LOL

Yanks saw an opportunity to snatch Canada while the Brits were busy with Bonaparte. Didn't work out so well for them though.

Demonic
