Schroeder's post was by his own admission Off-Topic. His question may have been brought up in reference to a Jimbuna's post, but it was a generic question worded specifically to spark a discussion - a discussion which has nothing to do with what happened one hundred years ago today.

Your response, while using the particular battle as an example, was directly tied to his question, and I couldn't move one without moving the other. I considered editing the parts that weren't tied directly to the battle, but then decided that was not only not my place but more work than I was willing to do considering the several hours I already put in every day on the '100 Years' thread. I thought your response was a good one, and if you wish to create an edited version with regards to the battle itself, please feel free to do so.
