Early on, Arnold served his country honorably, Leading the [[Capture of Fort Ticonderoga]], [[Invasion of Canada]], and the [[Battle of Saratoga]], among others. In 1780, Arnold attempted to give control of the Fort at [[West Point]], which he commanded, to the [[British]].  His plans were revealed when his British contact [[Major André]] was caught with incriminating papers.  André was executed but Arnold escaped.  He saw limited action serving the British in the remainder of the war, and eventually was called back to [[England]].  He returned to [[Canada]] and then went back to [[London]] where he died, hated by his betrayed country, the country that he switched sides to and with little left to his name.
