war,
including FDR and Thomas Jefferson.

Presidents who served in wars
a.. George Washington - Commander in Chief of Continental Army during

the

George Washington was also the Commander in Chief of the Provisional or
National Army raised during the Quasi-War with France. This was after he

was
president.


Also he led a group that may well have fired the opening shots in
the French and Indian War as a British subject.
