Good question! How does one work up a scenario that provides for the surprise of the attackers while also giving the "surprised" a fighting chance? Both the AWI and FIW are full of such situations. |

I will tell you one thing, the incident is so well documented because of the court martial you can pretty much identify down to the man how many troops were stationed at each gun. I thought they used to have that information on line, but this was the best I could find: www2.lhric.org/spbattle/walk.htm |
