George Washington was a good general, he was very inspiring and intelligiant. Washington already had some military experience, he won the war for American independence against Britain. Washington served for one purpose and it was to keep his army together. For example, you have to have some comprehension to find out what the enemy team was up to and he was very good at this. These traits were very important at the time in history for survival, as long with independence. One example that I learned from traveling is that you have to be very supportive and caring for each other, just like Washington was. Another example I learned is that you have to have plenty of resources with you, such as food, water, and an emergency kit to keep everyone safe
