The Start of the War
The opening skirmish of the War was started when George Washington (at that time a lieutenant colonel) was leading his men to meet up with some frontiersmen who had set out earlier to build a fort. He soon got word of a group of French soldiers in the area. Thinking they might be a raiding party Washington ambushed them, and nearly every soldier was either killed or captured.
