IMHO, one of the most critical wars in the history of mankind. It led to the creation of the greatest Nation the world has ever known. It was a marvel of the exact right personalities being in the right place at the exact point in time they were needed. The world will never see a group of men like that again.

I would hate to be the kid armed with the drum.

1.Imagine yourself in that scene with an AR15.
2.Realize that the guys with the bayonets would not turn and run as you fired a second round without reloading.
3.Kiss your ass goodbye because those soldiers have
a.)A better bayonet platform with more reach and a larger blade.
b.)Forgotten more about fighting with a blade than you'd ever have a chance to learn.
A man with a blade at ten paces is a lethal threat, 10 of them is more than most can handle with a semi-auto rifle. Even with full auto, you will have to change mags sometime.
A single man armed with a modern personal weapon is not sufficient to change the course of a war.
