For the Common Defense: The Birth of America’s Armed Forces
As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of America’s independence, local historian Jeff Joyce will discuss the birth of our armed forces. He will describe how the Continental Army, Navy, and Marines were established in 1775 as war broke out between the 13 colonies and Great Britain.
