I think this is a true or false question. The answer is true. In the Battle of Saratoga, American powers vanquished the British Army of General John Burgoyne in September and October 1777 and brought about the French entering the American Revolution in favor of the United States. Doors was the administrator of the American armed force, yet Arnold, his subordinate, was more alluring and is credited with driving an American charge which was definitive in the second fight at Saratoga on Oct. 7, 1777
In 1903, the United States signed the Hay -Herran Treaty with Colombia which granted the United States use of the Ismuth canal, in exchange for payment. The Colombian senate refused to sign the treaty due to fears of losing sovereignty.
The United States responded by approving to a rebellion by Panama nationalists which started November 3 1903.
To help the rebels, the US removed its trains from the northern terminus of Colon, leaving Colombian troops that had been sent to put down the rebellion, stranded.
It is not clear if the U.S. gave any money or arms to the Panama rebels. The U.S. only withdrew the trains and also brought the U.S. warship Nashville to be on standby at Panama, which caused the Colombian forces to be discouraged from marching on Panama.
