Oh, I think he's easily the equal or better than Lee (who probably gets some Americentric overrating around here.)
The odds Washington faced were probably greater than Lee. And Lee had some pretty substantial screwups.
That could be. I read once on a page about Gen. R.E.Lee, that he learned from, and was much inspired by Washington, as well as his dad("Lighthorse" Harry Lee), who were themselves good friends to each other. The two elders influenced him in his own military career ambitions early on!
