Write a letter as a Redcoat in the 1770s (or anytime during the revolutionary war) & be a little dramatic.

Dear mum,

It's been so long, and my feet are tired. These filthy rebellious pigs think they can win their independence, and I find that rather hilarious. Their tactics are unorthodox and these battles get very messy. Oh dear, this war is absolutely horrid, I long for some freshly brewed tea. These inexperienced marksmen taking part of such a pitiful militia have to stand in the kings way along with these savages they teamed up with, absolutely distasteful. Me and my brothers shall advance and restore order for Great Britain.

Love,

Tom
