General Pulaski Didn't Let His Small Stature Hold Him Back

[@tranceduo]

But how tall was he? Even Napoleon was considered small despite being estimated at 5’7”, an average height.

[@hopatease1]

He was 6 foot 3 inc but he had small feet : )

[@StuSaville]

17th and 18th century height averages are heavily skewed downward because most of the population was stunted in childhood due to malnutrition. Napoleon and Pulaski would have been considered very short in comparison to contemporary military officers who were much taller than average having come from well fed aristocratic families.

The Napoleon thing was popaganda

[@vincenticious]

A bit late, but as a family member who has relation to this project I can tell you that Pulaski himself was roughly 5'4"

[@wingedhussar5528]

@@StuSaville That is spot on BUT. Pulaski came from a fairly well off aristocratic family and he was a Count.

[@LeftLeftRightRight16]

I didn't let my small size hold me back either. In jail now though so not sure if it was worth it.

He was buried at sea. Being mortally wounded in battle and put on the hospital ship the Wasp. He succumbed to his wounds and died on board. He then was buried at sea.

Does anyone know who the actor is?

[@quetzalgirl101]

What’s the name of the actor that plays Polaski ?

[@pameladeleon1949]

Como se llama El actor que interpreta a casimir

[@missdann]

Because of one guy? The British were just like "Nah we can't fight that guy" and retreated?

[@buoazej]

Not one guy, few dozens. Pulaski, along with Fabriczy, are fathers of US cavalry, in the tradition of the famous Winged Hussars. British got literally shocked.

[@suprstraight2421]

And now feminazi claim that he was a wonam xD

[@irajayrosen4792]

No, a group of research scientists trying to confirm that the tomb contains the General's remains (there are two alleged graves) were surprised to discover a female skeleton of a person who produced hugh amounts of male hormones, so lived and died as a man. Perhaps the concept of "intersex persons" is too complicated for a person who chooses to reduce the scientific world into "femanizis" to comprehend.

[@joeagle950]

He was mortally wounded in battle and put on the hospital ship the Wasp. The surgeon could not remove the bullet and he succumbed to his wounds. He was buried at sea.

@@joeagle950 just because you say it over and over does not make it true sadly.

[@consciousiota2161]

To be fair, it's trans rights activists who are claiming he was a XX male and not feminists. TRAs use intersex conditions to validate their identities.

[@bluelola4480]

Does it mean they misgendered him? Coz he obviously identified as a fierce and brave man
