That's what the old history books said about the German soldiers who fought alongside British regular troops in the Revolutionary War. But Truth is stranger than Fiction; Hessians weren't mercenaries. Also, a large number of them stayed in the infant United States to add Sauerkraut and spice (Nutmeg, of course!) to the Republic.;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
