Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

In response to the decree, Salem's owners granted him freedom so he could continue to fight. Salem's experience at Bunker Hill became popular when John Trumbull included a soldier, thought to be Salem, in his famous 1786 painting, The Battle of Bunker's Hill.
