[00:00:00]What if I told you a secret group of ordinary citizens helped win the American Revolution?

[00:00:05]Meet the Culper Spy Ring, a covert network founded [music] in 1778 by George Washington in New York. Using invisible ink, coded messages, and aliases, these spies, led by Abraham Woodhull and Robert [music] Townsend, uncovered British troop movements and plots. Their intelligence exposed Benedict Arnold's treason and saved French allies [music] from ambush.
