Benedict Arnold is not having a good New Year’s Day. Pale from blood loss, he lies in a makeshift hospital, a bullet freshly extracted from his leg. His invasion is a disaster but with half his army gone, Arnold still refuses to retreat. While Governor Carleton, despite having twice Arnold’s numbers, consolidates rather than sallying out, a highly cautious and criticized choice.

When people talk about how it was okay for American military bases to be named after Confederates, I ask why not a military base named after Benedict Arnold? If we’re going to name military bases after traitors, we should name them after traitors who at least initially fought for the American side. Benedict Arnold’s service at the Battle of Saratoga not only shattered his leg, but his action turned the battle towards an American victory with a complete surrender of an entire British army. That victory convinced France to fully support the American revolt leading to the French fleet bottling up the British army at Yorktown, and to American independence. It might not be an exaggeration that without Benedict Arnold, America wouldn’t have won its independence from Britain. At the same time, if Arnold’s West Point plot succeeded, the revolution might have died. There’s a monument to Benedict Arnold (or at least his boot) at Saratoga. It doesn’t mention Arnold’s name, but calls him “The ‘most brilliant soldier’ of the Continental Army”. There’s another plaque to Benedict Arnold in London on his home at 62 Gloucester Place. It’s where he lived after the war until his death. That plaque refers to Arnold as the American Patriot.

Benedict has this "Darth Vader" feel to him now. You know he's going to fall but you also know he was a war hero too.

Martin Verran

Oh, dear, Benedict, did they not teach you there is no shame in retreat before a superior force? Oh, yeah, and, by the way, my forebears probably made the Cannon ball that took out your Commander in the last episode, so sorry about that. *Whispers* Actually, I'm not sorry at all.

This series is fantastic. It’s quite the feat to take something we all know the outcome to, and make it suspenseful!

Hi Stacy! We decided to do a 2 part series on Benedict Arnold right after this one. So, It's kind of a part of the series but a deeper dive into Benedict himself.
