Read this account of an incident in the French and Indian War.

September 20, 1755

When we came there we were attacked by a party of French and Indians, whose number, I am persuaded, did not exceed three hundred men; while ours consisted of about one thousand three hundred well armed troops, chiefly regular soldiers, who were struck with such a panic, that they behaved with more cowardice than it is possible to conceive. The officers behaved gallantly, in order to encourage their men, for which they suffered greatly, there being near sixty killed and wounded.
–George Washington
July 18, 1755

The British struck first

It was on 20th of September, 1755 when the French and Indians came in direct contact with the British troops. Although the troop of French and Indians comprised of not more than three hundred men, still the British soldiers panicked in the first instance. In reality the British soldiers were in thousands and had well-equipped weapons, still they behaved in a coward manner. This brings the picture that to fight, bravery and gallantry is more important in a war than the number of soldiers and weapons.
