Two days later Pułaski died and was buried at sea on Oct. 11, 1779

Pułaski founded the American cavalry and to equip his own legion he spent $50,000 of his own funds

The statue of Pułaski in Washington is the only statue dedicated by the American government to a foreign born officer, who died fighting for the American independence.

The image is a historical illustration centered on Kazimierz Pulaski. At the top, there is a large portrait surrounded by smaller illustrations, including battle scenes, a coastal fortification, and a statue of Pulaski. The text provides biographical details, noting his birth in Warsaw in 1747, his role as a general, and his death in Savannah, Georgia in 1779. The layout combines text with drawings to highlight his life and legacy
