Thoughts on this guy and what he did with his war career?

That's pretty pathetic, even for you. Have a little respect.

The battle of Saratoga was the lynchpin to our defeating the British. Winning at Saratoga brought the French into the conflict on our side. Without the French fleet there would have been no Victory at Yorktown.  The victory at Yorktown brought the British to the negotiating table and eventually independence.   Without Benedict Arnold no victory at Saratoga, so he was essential up to that point for an American victory in the war.
