As children we all sang about Yankee Doodle and the feather in his hat. However, did you know that the lyrics we all enjoy were written by the British during the French and Indian War. The English Army was one of the best trained in the world. They were polished soldiers, well trained and well dressed. In comparison, the colonial soldier was really not a professional soldier at all but farmers and shopkeepers. They had little or no training in military tactics and as for uniforms anything went. They were an untidy, disorganized, and a ragtag group next to their English counterparts. An English doctor named Richard Shuckburgh rewrote the words to a popular melody as a slap in the face to the colonists.
