In short:-
Bernardo de Galvez was a member of the Spanish military during the mid-1700s. In the 1770s, because he was a governor in the Americas, he was present for the American Revolution. Spain provided support for the colonies during the Revolution, and Galvez was part of that support.
Full Explanation:-
Bernardo de Galvez governed the Spanish colony of Louisiana, which (along with Mexico) was also referred to as New Spain. He became governor in 1777 and governed until his death in 1786.
At that time, Louisiana was far bigger than it is now. The Spanish colony of Louisiana covered a huge area to the west of the Mississippi, including the southern coast where Louisiana is today all the way up to the border with Canada, which was under French control at the time.
