This is kind of on the border between right and wrong, but when Hawkeye was walking toward the Sachem and was being "attacked" by the Huron, I think that was a sort of running the gauntlet. Although it was a bit more brutal than the one Susanna Johnson described, I could imagine they could possibly do something along those lines. --[[User:Shauser|Shauser]] 20:36, 10 September 2008 (MDT) | This is kind of on the border between right and wrong, but when Hawkeye was walking toward the Sachem and was being "attacked" by the Huron, I think that was a sort of running the gauntlet.

| + | Most of the inaccuracies from this movie seem to come not from the actual facts themselves, but from the way the movie singles out certain aspects while leaving other aspects out. For instance it was true that militias had very unhappy men and in many cases were willing to desert. The movie, however seems to glorify these men by only showing this one aspect of the colonial family man just wanting to go home. This movie does incorporate several aspects that are true, but it conveniently leaves other facts out resulting in a false impression of what is actually going on. - Jonathan Bell | ||
