Andrew Jackson, Pirate John Lafitte and the Ursuline Sisters are all considered heroes of the Battle of New Orleans. General Andrew Jackson launched a brilliant military campaign against the British. Jean LaFitte, a pirate and privateer, who joined forces with General Jackson helped to defend New Orleans. Meanwhile, the Sisters of the Ursuline Order, knowing their forces were outnumbered, launched a powerful prayer vigil with the faithful that some attribute at least in part to the successful outcome.
