Read the passage and correct any grammar or punctuation errors you find. George Washington is famous for being the first president of the United States. But what many people dont realize is that he was originally the commander of the Continental Army, which fought against the British to achieve American independence. When Washington took leadership of the army, it was not in good shape. The American soldiers were unreliable, disorganized and untrained. Washington had his work cut out for him. It was his job to strengthen the army so it would be able to defeat the british Army. He works to train soldiers and get them supplies, but the Continental Army is still far inferior to the British Army, which was much larger, more organized, and better trained. Because the British army was so much stronger, the Continental Army only won three out of the nine most important battles that took place during the Revolutionary War. Once the United States had achieved independence, george Washington is elected as the first president in 1789. Although Washington expressed doubt about becoming the president, he was unanimously voted into office, meaning he receives every vote from the electoral college. Americans were thrilled to have their independence, and they welcomed George Washington into office with excitement.
