War of 1812 Trivia #5

[Gary McClellan]

(after a long delay)

What three future US Presidents served as officers in the War of 1812?

[KG_RangerBooBoo]

Andrew Jackson and William Henry Harrison come to mind right off but I'd have to do some research to find the third and tonight, I'm just not that ambitious. I'm sure some one will give us the third.....I hope.

[Gary McClellan]

Hm, seems like a lack of interest in this :(

In any case, Mark was right about Harrison and Jackson.

The third was a young army officer who served in the Mississippi River area... Zachery Taylor

Oh, I'd say people are interested, at least based on my CWT&F posts...not many people post a response, but they say they like to read them...

I don't post a reply unless I know the answer to the question. It's too easy to look things up on the internet but that would be cheating.

It is however also a good way to learn though Leftie. I enjoy history but being an Aussie know extremely little about the ACW, a little more about Nappy History but still not much.

I have found with Rahamys ACW Trivia questions, yeah I look up the internet more often than not but I also spend a good hour or more reading the two or three really suitable sites I get which is adding to my knowledge base.

Great way to learn.
