Edward Braddock

From Turtledove

Edward Braddock (b. ca. 1695) was a British military commander during the Seven Years' War.

Edward Braddock in Atlantis

Used to European-style military tactics, Major General Edward Braddock was caught completely out of his element when the French Atlantean forces ambushed his command. Despite warnings from Victor Radcliff, Braddock bumbled into the trap set by Roland Kersauzon. As a result, Braddock was killed by two bullets. Rather than return to his lines, Braddock stayed in the saddle on the battlefield until he died.

Braddock was buried under the orders of Roland Kersauzon, the French commander who'd ambushed him.
