[QUOTE="jefe1037, post: 213783, member: 2290"] He turned down commissions with Henry Knox and Nathanial Greene, but someone made him an offer he couldnt refuse: He was George Washington's number 2. He captured a british gun at the battery in 1775 which led to the Hearts of Oak becoming an artillary Unit and founded the New York Provinical Company of Artillary in 76... i'm sure one of these is the early foundations that became what you know today. Either way, good roots. He was a heck of a patriot, and a good man besides that. He helped elect Thomas Jefferson president, who he disagreed with on nearly every issue, because he thought his party's candidate Aaron Burr was dangerous for the united states. [/QUOTE]
