...I leave you guys alone for one weekend and it's time for a new Fritz post, lol!

I'm gonna reply to the previous post comments but I guess new letter-reading, etc. should go in this one :)

Wooooow. The shade, it is thick!

That's not even shade, that's fact!

Somebody on the internet put together an impressive pilot project on "best generals of all time", and I saw that Mollwitz was listed as a Fritz victory, and I was like, "Look."

Did even *Fritz* take credit for winning that battle? I'm not saying he didn't shortchange Schwerin, or gloss over leaving the field in his memoirs, but at any point did he ever try to say he won it?
