Most of us are, save the misguided leftists attempting to tear our nation apart. For us patriots, Washington remains first in war, first in peace, first in the hearts of his countryman 🇺🇸
I have served in the United States Navy for 4 years and the United States Army for 6, dual service, OIF OEF 3 tours. I am proud of that. Since the revolution my family has served, my family originally were apart of Truby Rangers in Western PA during the Revolution. My 5th great grand father and my 5th great uncles were on the muster and served the entire war! We have served in every war since! My Great Great Grandfather was Theodore C. Altman who served in the 59th OVI in Company H at the battle of Shiloh, his brother my uncle was killed in action day 2 and he was wounded. His anger for my great great uncles death made him come back and he fought at Chickamauga, Missionary Ridge, and Kennesaw Mountain. His son. My great grandfather Birchard fought in the Argonne, and my grandfather WW2 USMC made all major landings in the pacific then came back and fought in Korea at Chosin, my dad was a vietnam veteran and my nephew is a paratrooper in the 173rd as we speak. Came here in 1749 as German immigrants and still in Ohio and serving to this day! We love this country. Thank you Washington for giving us this! If something ever happens, my oath doesn't expire, I will be back to defend the constitution and the flag.
Similar here, though I didn't serve and just teach history. My people came from France in 1754. Ggggg grandpa was a Westmoreland Ranger. His brother was in the Pennsylvania Line.

Best George Washington ever! You picked the perfect actor. I have been showing this to my 7th grade history class and will continue to show it in the future to all my US history students. Great film!
That is so good to hear, glad there are still teacher's who teach American history and don't degrade our founding father's and constitution! I'm a civil war enthusiast and it is so sad to see the young generation's completely indoctrinated about the civil war, being taught that it was all about slavery and the South is full of racist slave owner's. Understanding true history brings the present time to life IMO, it helps the youth to understand just how important history is! God Bless
@Crab In Prussian no the father's of the Confederacy were fighting to preserve the constitutional Confederate Republic that America was established as in 1776. Lincoln and the North illegally and treasonously implemented a Federal Nationalized Democracy. Geographically the war was fought over Western Expansion. The Union conquered not only sovereign Confederate territory, but also sovereign Native American Territories. Not many understand that the last Confederate General to surrender was a Native American, the leader of the Cherokee Territory! Less than 3%of the Southern populous owned slaves, the men who fought for the Confederacy were fighting for their nation's, private property right's, and the father's of the Confederacy. The Union since 1861 has not believed in private property right's, as American's are taxed for owning their own land. This is constitutionally illegal. Lincoln DID NOT have to invade the South and murdser hundred of thousands of innocent men and women in order to come to an agreement. If Florida seceded today would you be in favor of the Federal government invading Florida? Why was it different in 1861? Lastly, the state's should of had the right to end slavery in their nation, not the Federal government!! The industrial revolution ended agricultural slavery across the world, now we are all slaves in our tyrranical technocracy known as the 🇺🇸! God bless the Confederacy❌ Anti-Federalist
That's awesome to hear wish more teachers would teach true american history. Which I think the " The american covenast the untold story history book" will teach them the true history.
@@rebelsoul5980 Before Lincoln was even in office the southern states succeeded. The only thing they were trying to preserve was slavery as stated by their politicians and written in their state constitutions. Lincoln even addressed this after being sworn in. The average men fighting the war for the Confederacy were duped into believing it was over their rights. The south pushed because they wanted to preserve slavery, Lincoln wanted to preserve the union. Seeing that Europe was thinking about becoming involved he made it about slavery for the north as well. States could end slavery whenever they wanted. Southern states did not want to end it and kicked off a war to keep it. BTW, that "constitutional confederate republic" died during the formation of government because, as the confederacy learned, a confederacy cannot function as a country when each state is its own country and there is no central government regulating the basics
George Washington- One of the bravest men to walk on this earth. A humble, dignified, perseverant, courageous man with a powerful aura. One of the greatest allies of liberty.
@@marlonmorris8245 He owned 300 slaves, which he & wife freed upon their deaths. Some slaves choose to stay on.

And she just started paying taxes on this & cries about having to do that.
I have two ancestors that fought under General George Washington durning the revolutionary war, and it's a miracle they survived, if they hadn't I wouldn't be here today.
What a greatest honor for you to tell the story thay your ancestors secured our American dreams and future for all future generations in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. No men are short in their contribution to the victory of the American Revolution and whenever I start to doubt the USA for any reason, I think of their ultimate sacrifice not to let it go in vain. And we salute them for their service for outstanding bravery, courage and determination.
just finished the 6 part tv mini series titled George Washington. Though I am a Filipino and had never set foot on an American soil, I appreciate these films, series. America has been a friend of our country and American soldiers fought side by side with our ancestors here in our land. So, it is not just respect that we have, but awe and inspiration watching your history in the moving screen. Salute!
Salute to you brother. One of our long lasting Allies, the Philippines are hand in hand with America and i know for a fact if American soil was invaded, the filipino military would be fighting to the death for us. I would say we as Americans have allies, but then we have blood allies that are more than that and I would rank the 🇵🇭 among the very top.
Although our countries have had rocky histories, we now stand together against forgeign aggression, may our alliance continue and our people cooperate for the years to come 🇵🇭🇺🇸
23 years a U S Marine. I’ve listened to people for decades speak about the cowardice of France in both world wars and how the United States saved them. That’s BS. They were overwhelmed by superior forces. Truth is that Americans would be speaking with an English accent if it wasn’t for the blessings bestowed upon us by France. Their many gifts to us should never be overlooked.
As a British man I would say George Washington is one of finest and greatest leaders in history. He was a humble, intelligent, strong-willed and God-fearing man.
The British idea of having an overseas colony that has little ties with the actual English mainlanders will pay ridiculous taxes, while having no political representation in the empire was ridiculous to begin with. The claim of severeignity was only a matter of time. As for the military, due to its isolaton, the United States were able to avoid war for a long time, when Europe was nearly constantly ravaged by it. It's only since the creation of the European Union that the Europe hasn't seen a large scale war for roughly fifty years.
American military is no where near as strong as it once was and since it hasn't fought a modern army in an extended period then it's a very bold claim to call them the best. Unfortunately no argument you make will be able to change the fact America is becoming weakened by its own people. America's military has also proven in recent events that it still has no idea how to defeat fighters with a cause. So no America is not the strongest in the world. They do have some of the most advanced weapons but weapons don't win wars.

Very nice of you to display American virtues of patience , perseverance and patriotism in legend of our great national hero George Washington. It had to be divinely assisted to have so many pieces fall into place. Thank you
Can you do a video on the Philadelphia campaign because I am very interested in the battles of Brandywine and Germantown and valley forge and the battle of Monmouth because at Brandywine Washington’s life could have ended but the soldier that had Washington in his sights said “it is wrong to shoot someone from behind “
I hope you guys are assisted by the government financially in someway. There is where I want my money to go!! True education fund! Awesome work! Thank you!
That is true, they take no governmental funding thst I'm aware of. I have offered services as an actor in these films and as a guest lecturer at Mount Vernon, travelling out of my own pocket. This is something i will not do without just compensation for commercial network documentaries or government owned parks... as i have been in their films too the past 20 years. We were just filming new footage last May to flesh out this overview film. After a year of people either homeschooling their children or actively observing their children in history class at home online in 2020... I observed a massive improvement in local Virginia, DC, Maryland and other American visitors to Mount Vernon. In years past often the international visitor outnumbered the American three to one, and most American parents showed little interest or knowledge to encourage their children. That has changed after 2020, if we can maintain momentum we may find a new patriotism emerge amongst the summer soldiers of our recent past.
Something that you didn't know or you don't want to know is that Spain was the key factor for the win in The Revolutionary War. There is an article from The Massachusetts Society 'Sons of the American Revolution' ( SAR ) called ‘Spain and the Independence of The United States.’ And after reading the article it is not a surprise to know than the Spanish Commander Bernardo de Galvez has the same honour of be Honorary Citizeship of the United States like Laffayete…

I've watched this about a dozen times now. This is so well put together and makes the history seem entertaining and inspiring. I think I am going to incorporate more stories about Washington into my upcoming campfire stories video series. Such a motivational figure when told in a way that makes it relatable generations later.
America needs our beloved Washington today. A man who understood human nature enough to fight an up hill battle , all those years to ensure liberty for the world. Yes , the world is a better place because of our beloved George Washington.
Born in Boston 1960 I live in Quincy, Massachusetts , this area was a big part of early America, 2 presidents are from here and buried here, I get to walk by their statues everyday, I always think about how they had no book to go by, they literally put together the idea of the constitution, Washington, Jefferson, Addams, my freedoms are directly because of those amazing men, all the soldiers who died and fought throughout the decades, I'm very grateful to all who serve. 🙏🇺🇸
Such an encouraging film summary of what General Washington accomplished for our God-given Rights to Life, Liberty, and our Pursuit of Happiness! Encouraging for the times we live in today, for the Americans in the US defending the very survival of Western Civilization! 🇺🇸🗽
2020 From the U.K.......What an excellent account of this part of American history .Good narrating and excellent movie . Short and clear explanation of these events ! Thanks to uploader .

Great movie/video. All American students in schools across our USA should have to watch these great patriotic videos to learn why they have the freedom we have today. It’s b/c of our forefathers fought for our liberty and freedoms we have today. Molon Labe!! 😆😆🇺🇸🇺🇸
I'm curious to know what would've happened if Washington's soldiers knew that the country they were fighting for was going to be the most powerful state to ever exist in all of history.
Whats amazing this Leader who was under such pressure to keep his army together and provide leadership under such dwindling odds was able to keep his head in the game and not fall apart despite the cold frigid winters and little supplies from a distant congress. We Americans have so much to be thankful for the ultimate sacrifices of these men and women. Today more then ever we need a Washington. Will there ever be another one, we will never know.
I think Trump was the closest thing we've had so far, but the situation was a bit different, much more complicated, much more evil embedded in secret, to weed out. It would be like Washington trying to manage the war from Britain, in parliament, but with traitors in both America and England multiplied into the thousands, if not millions. Or imagine Washington finding out that most of his military generals and Congress were working for the British.
i am from India and i love this American revolutionary war. this has so many things that are in parallel with Indian history.......the same time when American was gaining independence, India was losing independence...........lord Cornwallis was sent to India after his defeat in America. I salute to the bravery of General George Washington.
The first was like a lion, (England)and had eagle's wings(USA): I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.(a common personification of the US; Uncle Sam) Daniel 7:4 Prophecy fulfilled. Divine Destiny. Wonderful movie!
This documentary was NOT LONG ENOUGH!! I love the Map graphics which explains things that other documentaries show but don't explain. If you liked this watch the 1986 miniseries "George Washington". It's really good.
@@GodsRemote I'm guessing only the monarchs and/or higher class, parliament, etc. cared. Probably the average English citizen didn't really care, and it didn't affect them anyway.
A sovereign republic is what was created. "I pledge allegiance to the flag, of the United States of America, to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
Americans: *"Do it"* Washington: *"No!"* Americans: *"DO IT"* Washington: *"NO!"* Americans: *"JUST DO IT!"* Washington: *"Ugh, fine!"* And that's how Washington became the first President
The American revolution actually inspired many other revolutions afterwords. Most notably the French revolution. America's symbol of freedom and liberty seemed to have shined throught many miles. Thank you Washington, for being a fearless and courageous leader, and helping to begin this country.
Trump is the next Washington. Washington only had to fight the British and tolerate loyalists, but Trump has to fight the deep state and most of congress, AND the media.
Hello, Rebecca! How are you doing? I hope you are fine and staying safe? God bless America! Do you think anyone can make sacrifices like Washington in this generation?
Thank you for your historical depiction with all the details. I would to have the complete depiction of the President from the available resources as much as all those other founding fathers and mothers to the American Inheritance. Thank you.
God bless the united states'military. As a African American I can never forget how some presidents had slaves. I am very grateful to learn how far this country has come and I love how diverse my country is.

@@Nebulasecura I wasn't really saying anything bad, but alot of commenters do not realise Washington himself was British lol, so it was British vs British
@@brockcharz2104 yeah ik. I just assumed that it was something everyone would know based on logical sense given that the colonies had been a part of British control for nearly 150 years more or less up to that point
It's hard to believe that George Washington could hold together an army . An army poorly fed, poorly paid, ill clothed and still win enough battles to win a war for American independence. Something no other British colony ever did. Washington has to be one of the greatest American hero's
As a Brit, George Washington is a very valiant and smart history figure and took losing as not a answer and truly was great, but the crown aren’t evil at all, the Americans, fighting to stop expansion, the British to store prosperity to the American Colonies.
I'm Polish. We also contributed to the independence of the United States. 1. Tadeusz Kościuszko (Brigadier General of the American Army appointed on October 13, 1783) 2. Kazimierz Pułaski (brigadier general of the Continental Army, brigadier general of cavalry from September 15, 1777). Casimir Pulaski saved the life of George Washington in the Battle of Brandywine on September 11, 1777. We had many lesser known and unknown heroes in the US Revolutionary War. Glory to the Heroes!

Thank you to all those Patriots who gave their last full measure to usher in the birth of our great nation.
Ivan Mills, Amen to that!
pazza! these truths are self evident.
We need Patriots today to make another stand.
@@chuckcribbs3398 amen.
Imao their all evil slave owners
I hope you guys are assisted by the government financially in someway. There is where I want my money to go!! True education fund!
Awesome work! Thank you!
It clearly states they do no take Government money.
Yeah. I'll show it to my son
That is true, they take no governmental funding thst I'm aware of. I have offered services as an actor in these films and as a guest lecturer at Mount Vernon, travelling out of my own pocket. This is something i will not do without just compensation for commercial network documentaries or government owned parks... as i have been in their films too the past 20 years.
We were just filming new footage last May to flesh out this overview film.
After a year of people either homeschooling their children or actively observing their children in history class at home online in 2020...
I observed a massive improvement in local Virginia, DC, Maryland and other American visitors to Mount Vernon. In years past often the international visitor outnumbered the American three to one, and most American parents showed little interest or knowledge to encourage their children.
That has changed after 2020, if we can maintain momentum we may find a new patriotism emerge amongst the summer soldiers of our recent past.
Trump 2024
It was not General Washington alone, but small steps done consistently over time by the American people. It was our victory. God bless America!
Something that you didn't know or you don't want to know is that Spain was the key factor for the win in The Revolutionary War. There is an article from The Massachusetts Society 'Sons of the American Revolution' ( SAR ) called ‘Spain and the Independence of The United States.’ And after reading the article it is not a surprise to know than the Spanish Commander Bernardo de Galvez has the same honour of be Honorary Citizeship of the United States like Laffayete…
@@javiervicedo4201 no it was France actually
i may not be american nor british but this is still a very patriotic video
Wait did french help America win?

I've watched this about a dozen times now. This is so well put together and makes the history seem entertaining and inspiring. I think I am going to incorporate more stories about Washington into my upcoming campfire stories video series. Such a motivational figure when told in a way that makes it relatable generations later.
you do realise George Washington was British right?? so be thankful for a British man lol
He had slaves man
@@pillcosby6569 okay who gives a crap 🤡he was still a great leader and if it wasn’t for him you’d be British probably

Better than having enslaved ancestors whom
I’ll never know about. Be happy you can trace your ancestors
@@pillcosby6569 nope
America needs our beloved Washington today. A man who understood human nature enough to fight an up hill battle , all those years to ensure liberty for the world. Yes , the world is a better place because of our beloved George Washington.
Born in Boston 1960 I live in Quincy, Massachusetts , this area was a big part of early America, 2 presidents are from here and buried here, I get to walk by their statues everyday, I always think about how they had no book to go by, they literally put together the idea of the constitution, Washington, Jefferson, Addams, my freedoms are directly because of those amazing men, all the soldiers who died and fought throughout the decades, I'm very grateful to all who serve. 🙏🇺🇸
USA love the UK the most... Love USA and UK from Philippines
Such an encouraging film summary of what General Washington accomplished for our God-given Rights to Life, Liberty, and our Pursuit of Happiness! Encouraging for the times we live in today, for the Americans in the US defending the very survival of Western Civilization! 🇺🇸🗽
Here from school. Amazing film actually was interesting and enjoyable to watch
This is my favorite period in American History - the men were men and honor played a role in life but besides that they were brilliant in every way.
Man and Woman, even children in a race will thank god on their keens that George Washington was walking on Earth.
i wrote a comic of the revolution inspired by this video :)
Can you make a video showing us your comic? :D
Imagine if Napoleon and George Washington were here
British reaction: Were Fucked
George Washington is the Bravest person on The planet ❤️ love from India

@Netflix has to release a series of this! I would watch it for a lot of season!
It is an absolute miracle we won the war
Great documentary!
Well it was 5 vs 1 (France, Spain, Netherlands American and Prussian)

America needs her Washingtonian men now!
I was waiting for when Alexander Hamilton would be mentioning 15:08
SAME
The fact that Rochambeau's role in being the mastermind behind Yorktown's victory isn't even mentioned is crummy.
God bless America
No mention of Lafayette... strange version ...
Who had a son called " Georges Washington Lafayette ".
Career politicians have bastardized what these great patriots fought for & left to us. Love my country, loathe my govt.
Best video ever.U.S.A. U.S.A.
salute for the soldiers that died at the war.

Great movie/video. All American students in schools across our USA should have to watch these great patriotic videos to learn why they have the freedom we have today. It’s b/c of our forefathers fought for our liberty and freedoms we have today. Molon Labe!! 😆😆🇺🇸🇺🇸
Love 🇺🇸 from 🇵🇭
I'm curious to know what would've happened if Washington's soldiers knew that the country they were fighting for was going to be the most powerful state to ever exist in all of history.
George Washington? More Like Jorg Washmachine. Also nice and historically accurate short-action movie, very inspiring!
Whats amazing this Leader who was under such pressure to keep his army together and provide leadership under such dwindling odds was able to keep his head in the game and not fall apart despite the cold frigid winters and little supplies from a distant congress. We Americans have so much to be thankful for the ultimate sacrifices of these men and women. Today more then ever we need a Washington. Will there ever be another one, we will never know.
I think Trump was the closest thing we've had so far, but the situation was a bit different, much more complicated, much more evil embedded in secret, to weed out. It would be like Washington trying to manage the war from Britain, in parliament, but with traitors in both America and England multiplied into the thousands, if not millions. Or imagine Washington finding out that most of his military generals and Congress were working for the British.
i am from India and i love this American revolutionary war. this has so many things that are in parallel with Indian history.......the same time when American was gaining independence, India was losing independence...........lord Cornwallis was sent to India after his defeat in America. I salute to the bravery of General George Washington.
The first was like a lion, (England)and had eagle's wings(USA): I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.(a common personification of the US; Uncle Sam)
Daniel 7:4
Prophecy fulfilled.

Wonderful movie!
This documentary was NOT LONG ENOUGH!! I love the Map graphics which explains things that other documentaries show but don't explain. If you liked this watch the 1986 miniseries "George Washington". It's really good.
As a Brit, so happy for democracy you WON
Wow, I thought all brits hated the fact that the colonies escaped british rule.
@@GodsRemote Indian heritage !
@@GodsRemote I'm guessing only the monarchs and/or higher class, parliament, etc. cared. Probably the average English citizen didn't really care, and it didn't affect them anyway.
A sovereign republic is what was created. "I pledge allegiance to the flag, of the United States of America, to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
@Ponian UA-cam Yet the US went on to become the most powerful and most wealthy and most influential Country on Earth.
I will celebrate them no matter what
Greatest General and POTUS we ever had.
Absolutely brilliant production. Aesthetically pleasing and informative.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Americans: *"Do it"*
Washington: *"No!"*
Americans: *"DO IT"*
Washington: *"NO!"*
Americans: *"JUST DO IT!"*
Washington: *"Ugh, fine!"*
And that's how Washington became the first President
He REALLY did not want the job but felt it was his duty; and no one else really could have done it.
The American revolution actually inspired many other revolutions afterwords. Most notably the French revolution. America's symbol of freedom and liberty seemed to have shined throught many miles. Thank you Washington, for being a fearless and courageous leader, and helping to begin this country.
Also all other colonies in south america and central america join independent like the Usa
@@petrusfransiscodaeli5779 ikr! So cool!
Guys, this is a true American hero. NOT TRUMP
Definitely not Obama....
Trump is the next Washington. Washington only had to fight the British and tolerate loyalists, but Trump has to fight the deep state and most of congress, AND the media.
I love this film great work guys
I've been to Mount Vernon before and it was really cool. Great video!

George Washington! Forever loved by his fellow Americans ! God Bless America! 🇺🇸

@@Nebulasecura his heritage was from England too
It's hard to believe that George Washington could hold together an army . An army poorly fed, poorly paid, ill clothed and still win enough battles to win a war for American independence. Something no other British colony ever did. Washington has to be one of the greatest American hero's
God bless the USA!
As a Brit, George Washington is a very valiant and smart history figure and took losing as not a answer and truly was great, but the crown aren’t evil at all, the Americans, fighting to stop expansion, the British to store prosperity to the American Colonies.
Can’t wait to see Monmouth
I'm Polish. We also contributed to the independence of the United States.
1. Tadeusz Kościuszko (Brigadier General of the American Army appointed on October 13, 1783)
2. Kazimierz Pułaski (brigadier general of the Continental Army, brigadier general of cavalry from September 15, 1777). Casimir Pulaski saved the life of George Washington in the Battle of Brandywine on September 11, 1777.
We had many lesser known and unknown heroes in the US Revolutionary War.
Glory to the Heroes!
The british wouldn't give him a commission in their army so he said I will form my own army and be a general
