The article on Tadeusz Kościuszko, Polish military genius and aid to Washington and the colonialists during the American Revolutionary War. He was in with Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson too. Among many other things, he designed the fortifications around West Point.

He also led the "Kościuszko Uprising" against the Russian occupation of Poland.

My favorite anecdote from the article is that he was all about human rights. He willed a portion of his estate to freeing enslaved black people, including Thomas Jefferson's slaves specifically. Everyone charged with executing his will balked at that one though, the money ended up going to education for black people instead. Still, what a way to get a final mic drop against a colleague from beyond the grave.
