General Washington knew if the army survived they would win. Just a thought about fighting.

I don't know if you guys have ever seen the contest between CW/Morse and texting, I believe it was on the Jay Leno show. Too funny. Morse won by a great margin of speed with accuracy.

Morse has other attributes too like using Q and Z signals. QTH means your location or my location is, for example. Thus even people speaking other languages can comprende a message using the Q and Z signals.

Morse generally can get the message through static crashes or noise on a frequency or when there are very weak signals to contend with, or jamming is being attempted on your network.

Morse can be used with the simplest tranmitting devices, and even flash lights can use morse. Not having cell phones or satellite coms and such makes no matter.

It works even if it is centuries old.
