Good video here from an Archaeological Team that discovered the pattern of musket balls from the Lexington militia at Parker's Revenge  and the redcoats return fire to help pinpoint the location and movement militia movement after the ambush.  This may be useful to instructors who wish to enhance their presentation of this historic event along Battle Road.

Glad my brother does that Facebook stuff.

Thanks!
Last evening, it occurred to me that when a defender of Liberty is called home, their load lands upon the shoulders of the defenders left behind. Just as the Founders did their duty for Liberty, every subsequent generation must continue their work lest Liberty perish. As there is no way for the remaining adults to take on the work of those that die, we must pass the ideals and duties on to the children. -PHenery
