1780

 I've been hearing a lot about this Francis Marion fellow and his new tactics, and they appear to be working. He uses guerrilla warfare, which means he attacks in small swift skirmishes then flees back to a headquarters. Because we have so few men to spare we all ought to use this strategy. It e inflicts maximum damage with less American casualties.
