Every knows he was shot at the Boston Massacre.

No, it was at the Battle of Trarbach, fighting with General John Churchill, one of the last victories of the Blenheim Campaign.

It rankles me to this day there are no monuments to the victory...then again, the area along the Mosel was fought over for nearly a millenium between the Germans and the French. So it makes sense there would be no monuments to a British general. lol
