I think the writers at Cracked put it best when they said that George Washington was either extremely luck or magic considering the number of times he was almost killed. If he were killed at some point between 1775 and 1783 how much would that have impacted the result of the war?

Personally I believe that any time after Yorktown wouldn't have impacted the settlement of the war that much. However prior to Yorktown is a different story. Washington was not the best general, losing more battles than he won. However his role was more of a moral leader of integrity that everyone could get behind, especially after the war, can not be under valued.
