Congress designated the hero of saratoga, general horatio gates, as the new commander in the south.

I think this is a true or false question. The answer is true. In the Battle of Saratoga, American powers vanquished the British Army of General John Burgoyne in September and October 1777 and brought about the French entering the American Revolution in favor of the United States. Doors was the administrator of the American armed force, yet Arnold, his subordinate, was more alluring and is credited with driving an American charge which was definitive in the second fight at Saratoga on Oct. 7, 1777
