- The future seventh president of the United States, Andrew Jackson, is a 13 year old boy soldier struggling to survive the American Revolution.
- This episode tells the story of the incident in young Andrew Jackson's life during the American Revolution when a British officer orders him to clean the mud from his boots. The young pre-teen defies the officer who then strikes him with the blunt edge of his sword. He then orders the boy to make the long walk to a confinement location without his boots. This incident was the basis for Jackson's life-long hatred of the British.
