Christopher Ludwick: Baker General

Gingerbread maker Christopher Ludwick brought a recipe list of skills to the Continental Army and earned the respect of General Washington in the process.

Early Life

Born on October 17, 1720, in the small town of Giessen in Hesse-Darmstadt, Germany, Christopher Ludwick was introduced to baking by his father, a prosperous baker named Heinrich Ludwig.

At the age of 17, Ludwick enlisted in the German emperor’s army and fought against the Turks, took part in the siege of Prague, and eventually joined the Prussian Army. When the war ended, Ludwick decided to put his baking knowledge to use by becoming a baker aboard an East India Company ship.

BREAKING: Dr. Anthony Fauci tells @MSNBC's Rachel @maddow that at least one million more Americans would have died without the COVID-19 vaccine, says, the unvaccinated were dying at an alarming rate compared to the vaccinated. WATCH

"I think globally it would be many more 1000000 In the United States it could probably be another 1000000 because it was very very clear when you looked at the curves of hospitalizations and deaths and people who were vaccinated versus people who unvaccinated The unvaccinated people the death and the hospitalization went this way And vaccinated it was So the difference the multifold difference in hospitalizations and death if we did not if we had a vaccine in the usual time period that it takes to get a vaccine this would have been an even more unimaginable devastation that we would have gone through Even more unimaginable It's already unimaginable is already just horrible It would have been much worse."
