About Me
Paragraph 1

 Hello I am Friedrich von Steuben. I currently work as a Military officer. I am kicked off because of stealing. I am now in trial waiting for this to end. Anyway I appreciate the work of Mr. General George Washington. When I was involved with Washington it was the winter at Valley Forge. I was informed that more than 2,500 men after the battle of Saratoga were dying.

Paragraph 2

 When I went to Valley Forge with General George Washington, I trained the other soldiers. I taught them to teach others how to be soldiers. I then taught them to train themselves. They were then ready to fight against the English. After Valley Forge I decided to stay with Washington. We fought more battles for example the battle of Princeton. This was the battle when Washington fought against the British.

Paragraph 3

 In this battle, of course we won. Unfortunately many of our soldiers died. Washington and the troops rejoiced with gladness. Another battle that Washington fought in was the battle of Trenton. This was the battle where Washington was against a Hessian mercenaries. After this battle, which we won, was when all of this started. I met Washington and his troops. This is a bit of my life.
