TEN WORDS TO SUM UP WHAT I THINK OF THIS PERSON
IT’S
UNKNOWN IF HE CHANGED SIDES IN A MATTER OF CONSCIOUS, OR IF IT WAS DUE MORE TO THE BRITISH HAVING
A BETTER EQUIPPED ARMY. (HE’D BEEN MISTREATED BY THE CONTINENTAL CONGRESS IN
THAT OTHERS RECEIVED CREDIT FOR HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS. HE’D ALSO PAID OUT A LOT
OF HIS OWN MONEY FOR SUPPLIES.) DOESN’T EXCUSE HIM, BUT IT HELPS TO EXPLAIN WHY HE SWITCHED SIDES.
TEN WORDS HOW THIS PERSON AFFECTED MY LIFE
It was overwhelming
meeting the man who’s very
name has come to mean the most despicable of traitors.
WHAT I’D SAY TO THIS PERSON IF WE MET TODAY
AT LEAST
I’D HAVE RESPECTED YOUR POLITICAL VIEWS IF YOU’D SIMPLY DISGARDED YOUR UNIFORM!
WEARING OUR’S WAS UTTERLY DECEITFUL.
WHAT I WISH I HADN’T SAID /DONE TO THIS PERSON
NONE.
