He fought with distinction for the American Continental Army and rose to the rank of major general before defecting to the British in 1780.

Arnold was planning to surrender the fort to British forces, but the plot was discovered in September 1780, whereupon he fled to the British lines. He led British forces in battle against the army which he had once commanded, and his name became synonymous with treason and betrayal in the United States.
