Answer 2

During the American Revolution, George Washington was the commander of the Continental Army.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Continental Army was a united structure of the armed forces of the Thirteen Colonies, that fought against the forces of the Kingdom of Great Britain during the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783).

The army, under the command of General George Washington, was created on the basis of the decision of the Continental Congress on June 14, 1775, and was dissolved almost entirely on November 3, 1783, after signing the peace agreement in Paris. A small portion of the army's remaining forces were placed in Fort West Point and delegated to guard the state borders until, by law on June 3, 1784, Congress created the United States Army.
