George Washington – WCS

George Washington had lost more battles than he won, but he won the right ones at the right time and the last one most of all. Usually not counted among history’s greatest strategists or tacticians, the father of of our country was more importantly a winner against all odds. 

The siege of Yorktown, with the welcomed assistance of French forces, proved to be Washington’s master-stroke, destroying a major British army. Ultimate victory and formal recognition of independence became inevitable. Washington had worn down Parliament’s patience and emptied their treasury. He had kept an army in the field against daunting odds.

He defeated the mightiest nation on earth with a band of citizen-soldiers who, by the end of the war, were as professional as their foes. But unlike them however, he returned to his domestic calling when the war came to an end.
