Roderigue Hortalez & Cie
Prior to its formal involvement in the War for Independence, the French government supplied the American rebels with critically needed war goods through a bogus private trading firm known as Roderigue Hortalez & Cie. French officials did so because they hoped to see the power of Great Britain reduced but without becoming directly engaged in the war itself. Once the Franco American alliance came into being in 1778, the French could abandon such ruses in favor of open support of their rebel allies.
