Oh it’s nice, but a good chance if you were a vet of the Rev for any length of tome, you were in one of the major events. “With Washington” is the kicker. Make people think “in the boat” when all it means is one of the many regiments that crossed and went to route the Germans. Exaggeration and misinterpretation happens all the time in genealogy/history.
That is all very nice but entirely misses my point. I think it’s a more meaningful distinction than “earliest born person to be photographed.”
