Over the vast distances and rough terrain of the Revolutionary War, the tactics that Daniel Morgan had learned in Indian fighting - the thin skirmish line, the stress upon individual marksmanship, the hit-and-run mobility - were an important element of his success as a commander. He combined this success on the battlefield with a deep devotion to the soldiers serving under him.
