Battle of the Thames. So who is the coward here?! I have a very strong dislike for people who turn their back on their fellow men. Henry Proctor-he was called out on being a coward. And he showed his true colors in the Battle of the Thames. The result of his and his men’s cowardice resulted in one of the greatest Canadian leaders to die. Tecumseh was trying to prevent Americans from expanding into Canada; his efforts went down the drain. The British left the Native to finish the battle themselves-they could not do it alone, and they were left to have many good men die. Cowards! And sometimes we wonder why the natives have grudges towards us? Maybe we should sick with them in battle, instead of running.

I'm curious as to how this battle might have gone differently had Brock been there and not Proctor. The English actually had defensive fortifications/canon, etc. in place but chose to run away instead of fighting.
