Why did the US attack Germany after we saved your ass in the Revolutionary War?
>Americans, both Rebel and Tory, often feared the Hessians, believing them to be rapacious and brutal mercenaries. Meanwhile, Hessian diaries frequently express disapproval of the British troops' conduct towards the colonists, including the destruction of property and the occasional execution of prisoners, the latter being doubly upsetting when American Germans were among them.

Of course, it makes perfect sense to compare an entire country to a bunch of mercenaries.
And, to judge the past based on current values and understanding of "history."
Right, Deutschland?

So because Hessians were bothered by British executions and plunder they "saved America"?
That's the dumbest inference ever

>Many Hessian prisoners were held in camps at the interior city of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Lancaster was a center for the Pennsylvania Dutch, who treated the German prisoners well. The Hessians responded favorably; some volunteered for extra work assignments, helping to replace local men serving in the Continental Army.
