This week on Christories, we're talking about the AN AMERICAN TRAITOR Benedict Arnold! Benedict Arnold was an American military officer during the Revolutionary War. He achieved early success and was a hero at the Battle of Saratoga. However, feeling unappreciated, he turned traitor in 1780 and conspired to surrender West Point to the British. His plan was foiled, and he fled to join the British Army. Benedict Arnold's name is now synonymous with betrayal in American history. DO YOU THINK HE'S A TRAITOR? OR DID HE HAVE TO DO WHAT HE HAD TO DO!!??
