Arriving in America June 13, 1777, Lafayette swore on the shore to commit himself to the cause. This day also marked Lafayette’s undying allegiance to General George Washington.

Months later, the Marquis found himself at Valley Forge as an aide-de-camp to Washington. He also found himself a second-time father to a young daughter. News of her birth reached Lafayette the same day the Continental Army encamped at Valley Forge, December 19, 1777.

As commander of a new division at Valley Forge, with enlistments decreasing and desertions increasing, Lafayette took it upon himself to make sure his troops were living to the best possible standards. He donated muskets and uniforms to men in need. Known as the soldiers’ friend, Lafayette shared the hardships with his men, even when his rank entitled him to special privileges.

Although it was apparent that battle would be postponed until spring, his homesickness worsened. But even though his wife and father-in-law begged him to return home to France, the loyal Lafayette refused to leave.

Lafayette was a loyal supporter of the American cause as well as an avid supporter of George Washington. A young man, with obligations at home, Lafayette still remained faithful to the promise he made when first set foot on American soil in June 1777.

He returned to America in 1824 after President James Monroe requested his visit. It is reported to be one of the happiest years of his life, as he was greeted with enthusiasm by the American people.

🙏On this Memorial Day, We Remember those who gave their lives defending their country.
