Who was the president to lead charge up to san Juan hill?
COL Teddy Roosevelt led the charge up Kettle Hill in 1898, during the Spanish-American War of 1898. The newspaper men didn't like the sound of Kettle Hill so they chose the name of the hill top next to it, San Juan Hill. When advertising, the name is very important...that's why Hollywood actors CHANGE THEIR NAMES. During the war, San Juan Hill sounded a lot more romantic than Kettle hill. During the Revolutionary War the same thing occurred; the Battle of Bunker Hill was actually fought on the neighboring hilltop, called "Breed's Hill." Bunker Hill sounded far more romantic than Breed's Hill.
What advantage did breed's hill give the patriots?
Before the battle, Breeds Hill was a good location for a defensive position, allowing them to make walls of dirt to protect the patriots from British bullets, as well as the position being far enough away from the shoreline to be too far away for the cannons on British ships to fire at them. After the battle, even though the patriots lost the battle, it boosted their morale, or made them think that they had a good chance of winning the war. It boosted their morale because almost every patriot behind the dirt walls had killed or wounded at least three British soldiers, who at the time were considered the best infantry in the world. And at this point, the patriots were little more than quickly trained militia and volunteers whose courage was not doubted, but needed much more training in order to survive a fair fight against the British. So to summarize, Breeds Hill gave a good defense to the patriots, and although they had lost, the patriots felt that they had a better chance of winning the war for independence.
