and for lesson #2 we will go back in time to Boston (a place where that s.h.i.t. may have been heading)
Back to a time of the Revolutionary war.
As the troops would leave home and go to war, there would be bands of women who would follow. They would set up base camp and cook for the men, tend to the injured and some would even take care of other needs that the men may ask for. Gen. Hooker had a following of women that acompanied his regiment. As other regiments would pass by the base camp for Hooker's regiment and see the following of women that were there, they would pine over them but the division commanders knew it would not be good to take the women from Hooker's regiment following.
The men of other regiments were all told... Stay away from them... for they are Hooker's

Seems though time has changed, division commanders are still telling the men the same thing to this very day.
