So, check out this crazy George Washington fact: Before he fought against the British, he fought FOR the British. At the age of 21, Washington was sent to lead a British colonial force against the French in Ohio. He lost, and this helped spark the Seven Years War in North America. <audio src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/qxn3kq1xrcfvpm0/george%20Washington.mp3?dl=0" />
