Daniel Li%C3%A9nard de Beaujeu

He also organized the force that attacked General Edward Braddocks army after it forded the Monongahela River. The event was later dubbed the Battle of the Monongahela. Beaujeu led his small force into the attack, where he was shot dead in the opening moments when the attack was launched on July 9, 1755.
