About me / Bio:
Kazimierz Pulaski was a Polish nobleman, soldier, and military commander who fought for the independence and freedom of two nations, Poland and the United States. He was one of the leaders and marshals of the Bar Confederation, a Polish uprising against the foreign domination of the Russian Empire. He also became a general in the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War, where he reformed the American cavalry and created the Pulaski Cavalry Legion. He is known as "The Father of American Cavalry" or "The Soldier of Liberty". He participated in several battles, such as the Battle of Brandywine, the Battle of Germantown, and the Siege of Savannah. He was fatally wounded by grapeshot while leading a cavalry charge at Savannah, and died shortly after. He is remembered as a hero and a martyr in both Poland and the United States, and he is one of only eight people to be awarded honorary United States citizenship. He is commemorated by many monuments, places, and events named in his honor, as well as by numerous works of art.
