Mess

This page is a bit of a mess. What's all this Pickles being wrong? Regardless of the truth, it belongs in the talk section, not the article itself. 2603:6080:3840:106B:B603:B3FB:8A77:D77A (talk) 16:18, 11 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Unit returns as at January 9, 1815

The author Augustus Buell has a reputation for making things up. That said, he claims to have used 'the American force from General Eaton's memorandum compiled from reports of Company Commanders, the 9th of January.' For him to be this specific, it seems likely that these documents exist, and that he did access them.

Primary source documents of the War of 1812 from the Navy have been published by Naval Historical Center, in 4 volumes. Have the above been published by the US Army's equivalent? Keith H99 (talk) 17:41, 9 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
