Marion, MAJ Robert Rogers in 1757 (his 28 rules are still studied by the Rangers and we used them in some fashion in woods patrolling), and if you want to go way back, Sun Tzu had some interesting thoughts on irregular warfare about 2500 years ago.
Last October, my wife and I took a roadtrip through the southern Atlantic states- GA, SC, NC, and VA.
In SC, Marion’s name seemingly overshadows even Pierre Gustave Toutant-Beauregard‘s name. Marion this, and Marion that…
We even stayed at a downtown Charleston hotel that bears Marion’s name.
And that’s saying something, as it was Pierre Gustave Toutant-Beauregard who commanded the artillery battery that opened fire on Ft. Sumpter in Charleston Harbor.
