Answer:

All the statements are descriptions of George Washington.

Step-by-step explanation:

George Washington was the first president of the United States of America from 1789 to 1797.

As Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army from 1775 to 1783, he was one of the founding fathers of the United States and chaired the constituent Philadelphia Convention in 1787. During his presidency, Washington made groundbreaking decisions that continue to shape the development of the United States of America as a republican democracy. Above all, he worked towards a central power that could act against the individual states and the congress and deliberately trained the newly created office by setting precedents.

Washington was awarded the highest rank of General of the Armies of the United States posthumously on October 11, 1976, "for the past and present" on the occasion of the bicentenary of the United States.
