In October, 1777, Arnold was badly wounded at the Battle of Bemis Heights, one of the most decisive American victories of the war. Had he been killed (and he later said he wished that he had been), he would have been regarded as one of America's greatest heroes. Ships, freeways, towns, cities, mountains, and maybe even a state would have been named after him.
The selfless and even the selfish acts of the Men and Women involved in America’s History shaped the Country we know and love.
I was watching a series about the Revolutionary War. A British Sniper had General Washington in his sights, but he didn’t shoot him because Washington was riding away and he thought is was not Honorable to shoot someone in the Back.
Imagine where we might be if that one Man made a different decision. Imagine what the world might be.
The American People, after being brainwashed and processed through our Liberal Education System and modern Media have no idea of the bravery of the Americans that came before.
