The Role Of Disciplined Soldiers In Washington's War

From a strategic look at it many people would say Gates at the battle of Saratoga, but I think that Washington changed the outcome of the war with his battle ridden troops from Valley Forge. Without trained and disciplined forces how can you win a war against someone with training and discipline? This is what Washington thought, he wanted a disciplined professional force like the British so they could be equal in battle. And I agree, without discipline there is chaos and when you put chaos up against order chaos is always going to lose. So However, Gates was a good General and his actions in the war helped, I think that the disciplined soldiers helped in the long run and changed the tide of the war.
