Please forgive me for asking a dumb question, but are You by chance playing in "Supply"-map mode? Garrison squares are not displayed in that mode...
Something completely different: Playing the 1775 campaign (again as the British), John Burgoyne was killed in his very first battle (Boston May 75), but rose from the dead the next year to take command of Reenforcements in Canada, thus becoming either the second coming of Christ or the first zombie general in history

The Colonials have indeed lost most of their suicidal attitude, so I was somewhat surprised that Artemus Ward chose to attack Boston (and subsequently kill poor Gentleman Johnny) in May 75 although Gage's and Howe's armies (both being in defensive mode, not passive) combined had more than twice his numbers (not to mention more than three times his quality). But I assume, the AI checks only the strenght of the enemy army it is initially planning to attack, but doesn't include the strength of other hostile forces in the same region into its calculation (which does make sense to me, since those additional foes will not under all circumstances participate in the battle), right?
