The American officer who accompanied General Edward Braddock on the march through the wilderness during the French and Indian War was Colonel George Washington. At the time, Washington was serving as a lieutenant colonel in the Virginia militia and acted as Braddock's aide-de-camp. He played a significant role in the campaign, gaining valuable military experience despite the disastrous outcome of the expedition at the Battle of the Monongahela.
It was defeated at the Battle of the Monongahela on July 9, and the survivors retreated. The expedition takes its name from General Edward Braddock, who led the British forces and died in the effort.
best remembered for his command of a disastrous expedition against French Canada in 1755, in which he lost his life.

General Edward Braddock led an expedition to Fort Duquesne in 1755 with the intention of capturing the strategically important French fort during the French and Indian War. He took along a large contingent of British regulars, colonial militia, and artillery, including cannons and supplies for a sustained siege. The expedition was notable for its use of heavy wagons to transport artillery, which ultimately slowed their advance. Unfortunately, Braddock's forces were ambushed near the fort, leading to a devastating defeat.
