What's your favorite American military "battle" in history?

[FAUlty Gator]

It may already be in the works with Bill Whittle and the Daily Wire.

I'm a little upset they have not involved me since I've been saying this for 20 years.

They are also doing something on WW1 ace Frank Luke.

Bill Whittle podcast series The Cold War- What we Saw is the best thing I’ve listened to in 10 years.

Guadalcanal for me.

 

[eb05]

thank you all for your service. i didn’t know we had so many veterans here

 

[Bloody Run Hawk]

The battle of New Orleans with "old hickory " was pretty interesting and a very important win against the British. The battles in the previous threads are very worthy too.

 

[Aardvark86]

Brandywine
Cold Harbor

I'd probably have to go with the Huckeye people vs. the Badgaire people.

I thought this was amusing until I realized what game this was and then I got pissed

I dunno, the great MTV battles of the 00’s and early ‘10’s were fierce.

 

[13thman]

You got a top 5?

I think my top 5 look something like...

Midway
Gettysburg
Trenton
Battle of Samar (Taffy- 3)
Siege of Vicksburg

D-Day and all of the things that went with it was probably the best but there was so much there that I left it off due to the size.

Just one. That time the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

You talking about back In 1814 when we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we caught the bloody British in the town of New Orleans

We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico?

It has to be the battle for Grenada. As St. Ronnie exclaimed, this victory exorcized the demons of Vietnam and made America great again. It also established the confidence to invade other sovereign nations down the road like Iraq and Afghanistan. Never again would America hesitate to indoctrinate, I mean bring our greatness to these far flung heathenistic lands that are just crying out for Christanity, I mean democracy.

Grenada!

 

[Kinnick.At.Night]

The Battle of the Chosin Reservoir. Heavily outnumbered and out-supplied in extreme cold, American ground forces gave better than they got for more than two weeks against overwhelming enemy numbers until being forced to retreat. This battle is the essence of the United States Marine Corps.

 

[mnole03]

Battle of the Philippine Sea
Midway
Battle of the Coral Sea
Leyte Gulf
Battle of the Atlantic

Because…

 

[Jimmy McGill]

Battle of Schrute Farms

 

[drew_hawk]

Grenada!

[FSUTribe76]

Battle of the Philippine Sea
Midway
Battle of the Coral Sea
Leyte Gulf
Battle of the Atlantic

Because…

You really need to see the full thing to understand the value of not touching America’s Boats. Plus that only references Japan from WW2 and Germany from WW1 starting wars over touching our boats. You also need to add in the UK in the War of 1812 and Quasi-War, Spain in the Spanish-American War, Libya and Morocco in the Barbary Wars, Vietnam in the Vietnam War, Algeria in the American-Algeria War, China in the Second Opium War, Taiwan/Formisa in the Formosa Expeditionary War, Korea in the US-Korean Expeditionary War, Iran in the Tanker War, Somalia in the US Intervention in the Somali Civil War, and probably more.
