Wild chicken, I remember it well. It was where we used to do our mortar gunnery trials. Great food, got to meet German soldiers... I didn't appreciate the blizzard during the winter of 75-76 though.

Key Event: America Signs Treaty with Tripoli.\n\nSome more Key Events in President George Washington's Administration\n\n• Precedents---Washington established two main precedents: a cabinet and the two-year term.\n• Whiskey Rebellion, 1794---Washington ordered 15,000 troops to Pennsylvania and crushed the first challenge to federal authority.\n• Farewell Address, 1796---Washington warned against the evils of political parties and "tangling alliances" abroad. \n\n\nOn April 30, 1789, George Washington, standing on the balcony of Federal Hall on Wall Street in New York, took his oath of office as the first President of the United States. "As the first of every thing, in our situation will serve to establish a Precedent," he wrote James Madison, "it is devoutly wished on my part, that these precedents may be fixed on true principles." \n\nBorn in 1732 into a Virginia planter family, he learned the morals, manners, and body of knowledge requisite for an 18th century Virginia gentleman. \n\nHe pursued two intertwined interests: military arts and western expansion. At 16 he helped survey Shenandoah lands for Thomas, Lord Fairfax. Commissioned a lieutenant colonel in 1754, he fought the first skirmishes of what grew into the French and Indian War. The next year, as an aide to Gen. Edward Braddock, he escaped injury although four bullets ripped his coat and two horses were shot from under him. \n\n   \n From 1759 to the outbreak of the American Revolution, Washington managed his lands around Mount Vernon and served in the Virginia House of Burgesses. Married to a widow, Martha Dandridge Custis, he devoted himself to a busy and happy life. But like his fellow planters, Washington felt himself exploited by British merchants and hampered by British regulations. As the quarrel with the mother country grew acute, he moderately but firmly voiced his resistance to the restrictions. \n\nWhen the Second Continental Congress assembled in Philadelphia in May 1775, Washington, one of the Virginia delegates, was elected Commander in Chief of the Continental Army. On July 3, 1775, at Cambridge, Massachusetts, he took command of his ill-trained troops and embarked upon a war that was to last six grueling years. \n\nHe realized early that the best strategy was to harass the British. He reported to Congress, "we should on all Occasions avoid a general Action, or put anything to the Risque, unless compelled by a necessity, into which we ought never to be drawn." Ensuing battles saw him fall back slowly, then strike unexpectedly. Finally in 1781 with the aid of French allies--he forced the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown. \n\nWashington longed to retire to his fields at Mount Vernon. But he soon realized that the Nation under its Articles of Confederation was not functioning well, so he became a prime mover in the steps leading to the Constitutional Convention at Philadelphia in 1787. When the new Constitution was ratified, the Electoral College unanimously elected Washington President \n\nHe did not infringe upon the policy making powers that he felt the Constitution gave Congress. But the determination of foreign policy became preponderantly a Presidential concern. When the French Revolution led to a major war between France and England, Washington refused to accept entirely the recommendations of either his Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, who was pro-French, or his Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton, who was pro-British. Rather, he insisted upon a neutral course until the United States could grow stronger. \n\nTo his disappointment, two parties were developing by the end of his first term. Wearied of politics, feeling old, he retired at the end of his second. In his Farewell Address, he urged his countrymen to forswear excessive party spirit and geographical distinctions. In foreign affairs, he warned against long-term alliances. \n\nWashington enjoyed less than three years of retir

Blacks played an important role in the Revolutionary War. They  kept the plantations running when their masters were fighting, most notably George Washington but also many others. Slaves served on both sides during the Revolutionary War. The British actively aimed to recruit them by offering them liberty. Responding to this, George Washington allowed slaves to fight and over 5,000 served by the end of the war.\n\nCrispus Attucks led a crowd in an attack on the Customs House in Boston in 1770. British troops killed him in what became known as the the Boston massacre which was important in the leadup to the war.\n\nAn estimated 100,000 African Americans escaped, died or were killed during the American Revolution.

Depends on what side it was. Germans ate things made into stew, lentils peas turnips....usually thrown in a pot. Lots of pork and sausages, but when things got hard you could thow in horsemeat as well.The Germans also had field bakeries and as grain got scarce substitutes were used like potato flour and sawdust!! Coffee was cooked and there was also substitute coffee used later. The Germans had canned food in their packs that was only suppose to be used in emergencies (English and Americans did the same. They also carried somthing like hard tack. Canned food was used by both sides, and pakages of food sent to the front from home was always welcome on both sides. British had lots of corned beef in the can (exactly like the funny shaped cans you see on the shelves today. The Americans also ate these rations. French always had their long loaves of bread and wine was part(and still is ) of their rations. Below picture of me in Verdun,Reenacting the part of a German Cook in WW1. I cooked for about 80 people, mostly a stew made out of horse meat and turnips. Do a search for WW1 Reenactors and you should find more links and info.Look for Trenches on the Web also.

Food which would not perish easily on long journies,such as smoked fish and pork,salt,coffee,flour,and corn meal.They would suppliment this by hunting wild game,and searching for wild berries along the way.Or fishing in lakes or streams.Many pioneers brought cooking traditions from their native european countries.\n \nJohnnycake a kind of cornbread, was a favorite because it didn't get spoiled on a long trip. They also ate berries,and grapes. Grinding corn was often a job of pioneer boys. They dried the meat and hung it so that it would last longer. They also ate ducks, chickens, rabbits, turkeys, fish, pigs, buffalo, dear, moose, elk, raccoon, beaver, bear, coyote, goat, eggs, bread, fruit, pie, peas, nuts, beans and carrots. They ate apples, pickles, oranges, watermelon, corn, spices, sugar, plums, strawberries, bananas, pineapples, pears, peaches, cheese, and, flour. They also ate wild oinions, butter, and blackberries. Corn was very easy to grow so it was a common food for the pioneers.

How about homemade bread and preserves!  I think it is very 'primative' and makes me think of a lunch consisting of a cup of tea with bread and preserves.

There were Loyalists in the American Revolution, maybe 20% of the population. The British also tried to recruit the Indians during the war and turn them against the Americans. That's the only thing that would suggest there was any kind of civil war during the revolution. More detail on this website...
