I just received an e-mail from the Emerging Revolutionary War website promoting a video that will be posted on their YouTube channel this Sunday night.  Below is the description:

QuoteRev War Revelry: Bravery and Sacrifice; Women of the Revolution in the Southern Campaign

Join us this Sunday at 7pm, for this pre-recorded Rev War Revelry where we chat with historian and author Robert Dunkerly about the role that women played in the Southern Campaigns. Most of us know about the story of Molly Pitcher but the women of the Southern Campaigns have been mostly over looked. Grab a drink and listen in as we uncover many untold stories and little known events that show the complexity of the American Revolution. The podcast will run on our Facebook page at 7pm on Sunday, March 16th. Then will be placed on our You Tube and Spotify channels.

If you enjoy the details of the history we present and of the War of Independence era in general, I suggest you join the Emerging Revolutionary War e-mail list.  Below is a link to the page on their blog promoting the video which has a signup block.

The individuals who run this blog hosted the tour of Lexington and Concord I took last October.  It was a great opportunity and far too short.

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.
