The [[Battle of Monmouth]] wasn't particularly significant strategically, but it was an important proving ground for [[George Washington\|Washington]] and the [[Continental Army]]. It was also a near-disaster. But [[Shaun Hastings\|I]]'m getting ahead of myself, and that's naughty.

	Once the [[United Kingdom\|British]] learned that the [[France\|French]] had joined the [[American Revolution\|Revolutionary War]], [[British Army\|British troops]] were ordered to withdraw from [[Philadelphia]] and march to [[New York City]]. That's quite a march. I bet they couldn't wait for the invention of the motor car.		Once the [[United Kingdom\|British]] learned that the [[France\|French]] had joined the [[American Revolution\|Revolutionary War]], [[British Army\|British troops]] were ordered to withdraw from [[Philadelphia, United States\|Philadelphia]] and march to [[New York City]]. That's quite a march. [[Shaun Hastings\|I]] bet they couldn't wait for the invention of the motor car.

	The Continental Army was just finishing its winter at [[Valley Forge]] and George Washington was anxious to try his newly-trained troops. He decided to attack the British column in an attempt to delay ~~it - or~~ stop it entirely.		The Continental Army was just finishing its winter at [[Valley Forge]] and George Washington was anxious to try his newly-trained [[Soldier\|troops]]. He decided to attack the British column in an attempt to delay it—or stop it entirely.

	Washington chose [[Charles Lee]] to lead the advance guard in the attack. At first Lee said no, saying that the British troops should be left alone. However, when Washington ignored his protests and offered the command to the [[Marquis de Lafayette]] instead, Lee agreed to fight.

	Lee's troops caught up to the British column at the [[Monmouth]] court house, and attacked.

Despite the weather, the Continental Army was doing well until Lee mysteriously ordered a ~~retreat - a~~ move that still confuses modern historians.
