Actually, Ethan Allen led Green Mountain Boys in the raid on Ft. Ticonderoga. The British were not expecting a war so there was just a skeleton crew of about a dozen Brit soldiers there. They just knocked on the door and said there more of us then there are of you, please surrender your guns (cannon). One shot was fired in the air and no one was hurt. The Green Mountain Boys dragged the guns over frozen lakes and snow covered fields down to Boston. The guns were set up on a hill over looking Boston. When the Brit soldiers saw them, they fled. A few months later, many British solders returned.
Who was the leader that captured Fort Ticonderoga?
George Washington.Improve answer: Washington was NOT involved with the capture of Ft. Ticonderoga in 1775 or 1777.May 10, 1775, in the first offensive action of the war, the Green Mountain Boys of Vermont led by Benedict Arnold and Ethan Allen had assembled near the fort. As dawn approached, Allen and Arnold became fearful of losing the element of surprise, so they decided to attack with the men at hand. The only sentry on duty at the south gate fled his post after his musket misfired, and the Americans rushed into the fort. Most of the men roused the small number of sleeping troops at gunpoint, and began to confiscate their weapons. Allen, Arnold, and a few other men charged up the stairs toward the officers' quarters. Lieutenant Jocelyn Feltham, assistant to Captain William Delapace, was awoken by the noise, and called to wake the captain. Stalling for time, Feltham demanded to know by what authority the fort was being entered. Allen, who later claimed that he said it to Captain Delaplace, replied, "In the name of the Great Jehovah and the Continental Congress!" Delaplace finally emerged from his chambers, fully dressed, and surrendered his sword.Later, Congress realized the important locations of these forts and sent a thousand men to guard these posts. The colonists kept control of Fort Ticonderoga until July 5, 1777 when British forces led by General Burgoyne captured the fort. General Arthur St. Clair withdrew his forces from the fort and the fort was taken by the British thereafter. Fort Ticonderoga was set on fire by the British forces when they were subsequently forced to abandoned it. Starting in 1909 the fort was restored and turned into a museum that is still open today for visitors.
