I'm not arguing that British stupidity played a good part in the American victory, but seriously, if you were a British soldier at that time, would you just stand there and get gunned down because that's "how it's supposed to be done"? I know I wouldn't.
I'd like to think I'd be smarter than that, too. Lots of British soldiers did do just that, didn't they?
Soldiers are taught to follow orders.
