With thoughts of claiming military glory this man jumped at the chance to offer his assistance in the war.

Thoroughly known for participation in the Creek’s civil war, known for his military prowess in the Battle of Horseshoe Bend and New Orleans, plus his cruelty towards Native Americans consequently leading to the Trail of Tears.

This is a good start. You need to work on the Thesis Statement - there are a lot of grammatical errors in this draft. Also, you need to include an introduction paragraph.

Grade: Satisfactory - missing revised thesis and introduction
