June 31, 1812

     You might want to turn your eyes and ears here! The Americans and British have officially declared war against one another. Yesterday Sir Isaac Brock led troops to attack Fort Michilimackinac, accompanied by his ally Chief Tecumseh. His early start on the unsuspecting Americans, lead them to an easy capture.



We all also know of the victory only a few days ago, know how the great allies capture Fort Detroit. They had their men walk numerous times around the perimeter, making the Americans inside fear there were thousands and thousands. There were actually only 1000 soldiers and First Nations! Then with this, the Americans surrendered without one shot being fired! Swift British North Americans eh?
