It sits on the spot where Arnold fell wounded during the Battle of Freeman's Farm. He had just led a brilliant charge against a British redoubt—the culmination of a day of extraordinary field generalship that led one of his soldiers to later write of Arnold that he was 'the very genius of war.'rn"The leg was severely wounded, bleeding copiously, and pinned beneath Arnold's own horse. It survived the battle and the war.rn"Arnold, of course, did, too. But in the process, he turned from one of the great heroes of the American Revolution into the epitome of traitorousness." (Image)
