On September 21, 1780, during the American Revolution, American General Benedict Arnold meets with British Major John Andre to discuss handing over West Point to the British, in return for the promise of a large sum of money and a high position in the British army. The plot was foiled and Arnold, a former American hero, became synonymous with the word “traitor.”

 

I live just a few miles from the home where he was born.

Has this story stood the test of time? Someone like @Thaddeus Kosciuszko has to have read some historical books on this event.
