George Washington was a hero because he helped lead the Americans into victory during the American Revolution. He helped the United States become a free country.

Answer from: williamslyric

George Washington risked his money, his prestige and even his life to be on the forefront of the American revolution. After independence was declared, he assumed the command of the Colonial army. The men were largely untrained and came from all the different colonies and had to whipped into a fighting unit. Many enlisted for only a short time and so constant replacements were needed. Moreover, supplies were scarce. The colonial government found it hard to collect taxes and the colonies often did not provide their share of supplies. But Washington did what had to be done, kept the army together, kept after the suppliers, borrowed money and won the long war over the well-trained and well-equipped British army and its mercenaries.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

Buck did not cry out. he did not check himself, but drove in upon spitz, shoulder to shoulder, so hard that he missed the throat. they rolled over and over in the powdery snow. spitz gained his feet almost as though he had not been overthrown, slashing buck down the shoulder and leaping clear. twice his teeth clipped together, like the steel jaws of a trap, as he backed away for better footing, with lean and lifting lips that writhed and snarled. read this passage. explain what the conflict shows about buck and spitz.
