- "The time is now near at hand, which must determine whether Americans are to be free men or slaves. Our cruel and unrelenting enemy leaves us only the choice of brave resistance or the most abject submission. We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die!"
- ―George Washington before a battle with the British Army.[src]
George Washington (1732 – 1799) was the commander of the Continental Army in the American Revolutionary War from 1775 to 1783, and served as the first President of the United States from 1789 to 1797.
Both prior to and during the course of the American Revolution, Washington became an associate of Connor, an Assassin of English and Mohawk descent.[1] At some point, he also came into possession of an Apple of Eden.[2]
