Hannibal as a War Hero

[sidney]

Murdock is meeting with Stockwell in my story. Stockwell says: “John was quite a military man in his day. Really is too bad what happened. He could have went down in the history books as a true hero. Instead, he’ll be known for treason and murder.”

Do you think that Hannibal would have been in history books? Were his military accomplishments, as part of the A Team and perhaps prior to the team, enough to make him a hero for future generations to read about and study?

I really credit Hannibal as a military genius. I'd like to think he would have been a huge, accomplished military hero.

If nothing else, he may have been remembered for all of his half-pincer movements and "going in the front door" escapades! I like to think he is a good military strategist. I feel like in his spare time he reads up on past military heroes and their strategies.
