Who were george washingtons bodyguards?

Answer 1

During the Revolutionary War, General George Washington was guarded by an elite corps of soldiers known as "The Commander-in-Chief's Guard" or as "His Excellency's Life Guard." Their purpose was to protect the lives of General Washington and his relatives and to protect his personal papers and other belongings. The unit was originally formed in 1776, but was disbanded after some of the members of the bodyguard entered into a conspiracy to assassinate General Washington. The unit was re-formed in 1777 and thereafter faithfully served their Commander-in-Chief until they were disbanded in 1783 at the end of the War. Two soldiers, William Coram and Joseph Timberlake, served in the unit from the date they were re-formed in 1777 until they were disbanded in 1783. In 1904, Dr. Carlos Godfrey wrote the definitive history of the unit in his book, "The Commander-in-Chief's Guard." The book includes copies of the signatures of the soldiers who served most closely at the side of General George Washington.
