Benedict Arnold gained control of Fort Ticonderoga, a strategic defensive post located on Lake Champlain in New York, during the American Revolutionary War. He played a crucial role in the early stages of the conflict by leading a successful surprise attack on the fort in May 1775, which was held by the British. This victory provided the Continental Army with much-needed artillery and supplies for their campaign. Arnold's leadership at Fort Ticonderoga helped establish him as a prominent figure early in the war.

Why did the British think Benedict Arnold was a hero or a villain?
Benedict Arnold helped with the war Benedict Arnold led his army though Maine in the winter. He helped the soldiers survive. They had to eat boiled candles, bark, and shoe leather to survive. They finally made it to Quebec and they were disappointed because the French Canadians did not rush to support them. Many died but Arnold was wounded so he stayed outside the camp until May 1776, when the British landed new forces in Canada. At last, weakened by disease and hunger, the Americans withdrew, leaving Canada to the British. Answer By: Newenglandbrave I agree with this answer above but there is more to why he is an American hero. He had 2 main victories there was a victory at fort Ticonderoga and victory at Saratoga this is why he was a great American hero and Arnold was wounded at Saratoga. he was decomissioned to have a desk job in Philadelphia (sorry i cant spell) he was accused of stealing money from the the army's funds( i think) and he was mad about these charges and was suppose to go to trial but before he got a letter from George Washington and that letter said that he would have to await his trial because Pennsylvania's Governor didn't like Arnold at all and wanted to express his power and wrote a letter to Washington and said if he let Arnold go he would take away his support for the war this was something Washington couldn't handle because he needed all the support he could get he accepted these terms. This upset Arnold very much and this pushed him over the edge. He was already upset because of things i mentioned before the 2 major victories he had he was not given the credit. Other people were given credit and this upset he so much. He was pushed over the edge. After this he was asked to take control of a major post but he declined this shocked Washington all Arnold wanted was control of fort Arnold known better by today's name as west point. He wanted this so he could give it to the British and now he treason had begun. We ll know the story afterward with the letters getting intercepted and Arnold being put into British military and rising in the ranks there to . So i don't blame him for what he did i would of done the same. A famous line from Arnold was when he got shot. The lower ranking official asked him "where did u get shot" Arnold replied" My leg but I wish it would of went through my heart." If he would of died there he would of been the greatest American hero ever. i do not agree with that answer bacause even thow he stade with the Americans he went agenst them not to long after word.
