Benedict Arnold was probably one of the best Revolutionary War Generals we had on our side .. if he hadn't got screwed over by the Continental Congress and by some of his fellow Generals he would have been one of our hero's today ..some times pride gets in the way.. Washington was pissed and he was going to offer him third in command of the army but Arnold had already made his move.. such a shame.

Thanks for refreshing my history databanks. Arnold was a military genius and it is amazing how pride can drive folks to ridiculous extremes.

See, even these useless threads have value.
