English: Legion of the United States 1794. Major General "Mad Anthony Wayne is pictured in the center. The Army that on 20 August 1794 at the Battle of Fallen Timbers avenged the defeats suffered at the hands of the Indians in 1790 and 1791 was the creation of Major General Anthony Wayne. General Wayne insisted on rigid discipline and strict training. Conscious of the welfare of his men, he· saw to it that supplies were adequate and equipment satisfactory. The Army at this time was reorganized into a "legion," a term widely used during the eighteenth century to mean a composite organization of all combat arms under one connnand. The Army, instead of being composed of regiments, was made up of four sub-legions, each commanded by a brigadier general and each consist­ing of two infantry battalions, one battalion of riflemen, one troop of dragoons, and one company of artillery. To develop esprit de corps, Wayne had each sub-legion wear distinctive insignia. General Wayne, in the left foreground, is wearing the general officer's uniform of blue coat faced and lined with buff, and buff vest and breeches established during the Revolutionary War. He has the two silver stars of a major general on his gold epaulettes. To the left rear of the general is a dragoon orderly in his bearskin crested leather cap with a _red turban, denoting that he is a member of the second sub-legion. The orderly's blue uniform coat faced with red and lined with white and white vest and breeches were established for all the cavalry and infantry in 1782. In the right foreground is an infantry subaltern, distinguished by an epaulette on his left shoulder and his unbound bearskin crested hat; the colors of his u­niform are the same as that of the dragoon. In the background men of the First Sub-Legion, distinguishable by the white binding and black bearskin crests on their hats, advance, led by a captain armed with an espontoon.
