The Military Departments That Saved the American Revolution
Beyond the soldiers on the front lines, military departments responsible for food, clothing, weapons, and transportation played a critical role in sustaining the war effort.
An army marches on its stomach.
But what happens when they have no shoes, weapons, or clothing?
Join Park Guide Russell Brindley to explore the different roles that the Military Stores, Commissary, Clothier, and Quartermaster Department played in helping keep the Continental Army on the field to win our Independence.
Free to attend; registration required.
