Congress created the Continental Army on June 14, 1775, and John Adams nominated George Washington to serve as the army's Commander-in-Chief. While there were over 230 skirmishes and battles fought over eight years during the American Revolution, this film highlights the battles where General Washington personally secured his legacy as "First in War."
