Talk:George Washington

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Fact check

During the French and Indian War, he captured a French fort but soon left because he
was afraid that the french would attack.

which fort is this? the only reference I can locate to french fort (or any fort prior to Necessity for that matter) is Fort Le Boeuf which was not captured by Washington. (he didnt even attack it, he was there on a diplomatic mission as a messenger at the time)

I am also wondering if Fort Necessity is even notable in the scope of this article for Simple? -- Creol 22:52, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
