Two days later Dr. Rush was asked to join the war council as a second battle for Trenton was imminent. Dr. Rush was a congressman, not a soldier. He was out of his league and sheepishly gave his opinion to General Washington. Washington followed his advice, and the next day Rush watched as the Continental army successfully defended Trenton from the British.
