they were able to use the cannons they captured at the fort to force the british to abandon the Boston harbor
As the American Revolutionary as unfolded, it was important for the American rebels to score some military victories against the British forces. In northeastern New York the British had a fort called Fort Ticonderoga. The Americans launched an attack on this British stronghold, and captured it in 1775. The American forces were led by Benedict Arnold and Ethan Allen. As an aside, Arnold was one of the Americans; best generals. He decided to betray the Americans and help the British. Thus his name is now linked with the term "traitor".
