How did the revolutionary war bring personal tragedy to Andrew Jackson?
Andrew's father died a month before he was born, leaving his mother to raise Andrew and his two older brothers. One brother died serving in the Continental Army. Andrew and his other brother both joined the Army as well - Andrew was only 13. The brothers were captured by the British. An officer struck Andrew in the face with his sword when Andrew refused to clean the officer's boots, and Andrew bore this scar on his face the rest of his life. The brothers nearly starved to death while in captivity. Then smallpox broke out among the prisoners. Andrew's mother went to the British and pleaded for the release of her two boys. Probably thinking they were going to die anyway, the British released her sons to her. Andrew's brother did die a few days later. When his mother was sure Andrew was going to live, she volunteered to nurse the other sick prisoners. Soon, she too came down with smallpox and died. So, barely fourteen, Andrew was an orphan and completely alone in the world, with no family left.

What led Andrew Jackson to become a historical figure?
Probably the main incident that most affected Andrew Jackson happened during the American Revolutionary War. Andrew was a Prisoner of war captured after the Battle of Hanging Rock. That was the westernmost British fort in South Carolina. In that area, a number of Cherokee indians fought on the side of the British. One historical sign in the area refers to a Cherokee General Tsali. A British Lieutenant ordered Andrew's brother to polish his boots. His brother replied, "I am a Prisoner of War and not a man servant." The Lieutenant then took out his sword and killed Andrew's brother. Next he ordered Andrew to polish his boots. Andrew gave the same reply. The Lieutenant struck Andrew with his sword but did not kill him. From that moment on Andrew was driven to oppose the British and the Indians. That experience seems to have been the driving experience behind the rest of Andrew's life.
Is struck an abstract noun?
