Here is a link to an interesting article about John Adams' perspective after the events of April 19, 1775, his tour of Battle Road on April 22, and meeting with generals Artemis Ward, William Heath, and Joseph Warren.  Oh to be a fly on the wall at that meeting!

The article is by Chris Mackowski for Emerging Revolutionary War.

My father didn't serve in WWII.  It wasn't for lack of trying.  He attempted to enlist 3 separate times.  The last time the doctor said he was too short.  He responded that he signed up again because he said he saw a poster that was recruiting short men to be pilots.  The doctor said, "Short, yes.  But this is ridiculous."  In my book, he's still a hero.
