Wow! I want to read that. Washington was an equal opportunity employer too. He had at least one woman on his team. I read about her in the Smithsonian a few years back. A Quaker, I believe, but (like any tiger mom) she was concerned about protecting one of her sons who had joined the Revolutionaries and so she reported on the plans of the British troops who had occupied her home.
The Quakers were the only group General Washington did not care for; and only because they would not fight. But, it should also be remembered that Nathaniel Greene--his best field general--was a Rhode Island Quaker who went against the wishes of his family.
