Roger Enos – Court martialed for disobeying orders and removing his command from the Quebec Expedition. The only witnesses to testify were officers who retreated with him. He was acquitted and returned to service as a lieutenant colonel, commanding the 16th Connecticut Militia Regiment that served with no particular distinction in the Hudson Valley in 1778. After retiring from the Connecticut Militia in 1780, he moved to Vermont where he was appointed a Major General in the Vermont militia. He was alleged to have engaged with the “Haldimand Cabal”—Vermont activists (including Ethan Allen)—advocating Vermont becoming an independent colony, state, country, and even part of Canada. He died in Vermont on October 6, 1808.

Hans Christian Febiger – Captured by the British in Quebec on New Year’s Eve, 1775; held as a POW until paroled in a prisoner exchange (January, 1777), promoted to Lieutenant Colonel, assigned to Colonel Daniel Morgan’s 11th Virginia Regiment (February, 1777) where together they served in the Philadelphia Campaign (summer of 1777). Febiger was promoted to colonel (September 26, 1777), he took command of the 2nd Virginia Regiment and was a key leader in major battles at Germantown (October 4, 1777), Monmouth (June 28, 1778), and Stony Point, NY where in a night attack his troops captured the entire British command (July 16, 1779). He was at the final major engagement of the war when Cornwallis surrendered the British Army at Yorktown, VA (October 19, 1781). He retired from the Continental Army (January 1, 1783), was elected Treasurer of Pennsylvania (1789), a post he held until his death. Remained a close friend of Daniel Morgan until he died (September 20, 1796).

Horatio Gates – Late in 1777 he was nominated to be the president of the Board of War but didn’t take up the task until January 1778. From that position, Gates pushed his final unsuccessful attempt to replace George Washington as Commander-in-Chief. After the war he took up politics in New York where he died in 1806.

Christopher Greene – Became renowned for his brilliant defense of Fort Mercer in the 1777 Battle of Red Bank, NJ. He later led a regiment of black soldiers from Rhode Island when they made their mark on Revolutionary War history in the 1778 Battle of Rhode Island. He died May 1781 during the Battle of Pine’s Bridge. His death at the hands of Loyalists was likely due to his leadership of African American troops.

Nathanael Greene – Considered one of General Washington’s most loyal and skilled officers, he was given command of the Southern Continental Army in October 1780. He used Rifleman styled warfare to inflict significant losses on Cornwallis’s army which became pivotal in tipping the war in the Patriot’s favor. Greene’s military service spanned almost the entire war after which he settled into being a successful farmer in Georgia. Died, June 19, 1786.
