There is the first part of a series of articles in the Nov/Dec issue of Muzzleloader Magazine on the life of Maj John Pitcairn. Interesting facts include that Maj Pitcairn and Paul Revere were neighbors in Boston, Maj Pitcairn regularly attended services at Christ Church(the Old North Church), and his son who was a British Naval Officer was the namesake of Pitcairn Island of "Mutiny on the Bounty" fame.

Always looking for more perspective into our stories.
I tried to post this is the History section, but apparently I am not allowed to post there.
It's not your access. All levels of the instructor sub board, with the exception of a few, are locked to be archived. Something about
the forum having 3 different generations of info on it. Fall cleaning to be a lean machine, I guess.
There should be a new analog to that history board soonish.
