Then you were taught bullshit, firearms during the revolution were so inaccurate that standing in formation and then firing at the opposing force was the best way to deal casualties and force the enemies into a route. Yankees won because the British didn't stand a chance of operating properly with their supply lines stretched to fuck. It's even more ridiculous to assume this considering Yanks didn't even have an officer corps or a military history so them somehow outstratting the Brits is even more ridiculous.

Are you sure you weren't just watching thia movie where a WWII rifleman gets transported into the Revolutionary War? https://youtu.be/F-BQi0JjY2w
