Again, I _vaguely_ remember that Koscius(z)ko did play a part in the American Revolution, too. There were several high-ranking/notable foreigners who helped out. Most prominent in my mind is a German (from Prussia, if I remember correctly). He helped drill troops . . . . I think that he was at Valley Forge. I don't remember the chap's name. Anyway, I'm getting too far off topic . . . .
Baron von Steuben. And let's not forget the Marquis de Lafayette; when the American troops landed in France in 1917 they shouted, "Lafayette, we are here!"
