    What a powerful chain of events!  If it wasn't absolutely true, it would sound like a movie script.  I learned several new details about the rebuilding of Fort Stanwix in your presentation.  Great job!  Keep up the good work.

    I'm supposing that this whole story is true. If so, it is so totally interesting that at just about left me in tears!

    Ok one of the inconsistancies I noticed was that when they showed the scene of the fort returning to nature and animals rumaging through the ruins the creators showed M35 and M42 German Wehrmacht Stahlhelms in the ruins. ROFLMAO!!!

    The biggest lie is that of a circle of stars on the flag.<br>The Betsy Ross flag story was started in the 1886 Centennial and has been accepted as to be the truth ever since. <br>The blue, if it had stars, were arranged to the flag of Washington&apos;s, that were arranged in rows.

    General Benedict Arnold, who would latter sell out to the British as an American traitor for what today would be around 3.1 million dollars from the Crown purse, ultimately saved the entire American Revolution when he built boats and impeded the British from quickly advancing toward New York. &nbsp;Had he not went for the cash payout (3.1 mil.) Old Ben would have been on of America&apos;s greatest Revolutionary War heroes. &nbsp;StocktonRob &nbsp;P.S. Arnold lived out his rich life in London with the former Peggy Shippen enjoying his traitor money to the hilt.
