Settle Down, Paul Revere!1775 was a good year for the British career soldiers we call the Redcoats. Those whiny colonists in the American colonies were keeping them all in work with their grumbling. Those buckle-shoed yokels were incurring the wrath of one of the strongest militaries in the civilized world just because they didn't want to pay more for tea and paper. Well, the Redcoats didn't mind. Sure, they were far away from fashionable European society, refined tea time treats, and their noble king. But America's streets weren't yet backed up with centuries of refuse and coal dust. The sky was still blue and the water was drinkable. No offense London, you folks have literally cleaned up your act in the last couple hundred years.How were these soldiers supposed to know how many people would rise up over the eight years of the Revolutionary war? The war was close. History easily could have turned out differently.
