In Case You Missed It

The UK Daily Mail (of all newspapers) posted a tremendous article with great photos of the last living "Minute Men" from the American Revolutionary War.  The majority of these men pictured were either 100 yrs of age or older when they had "daguerreotypes" made in the 1840s.   I cant tell how much I enjoyed this article and was a little saddened by the fact this wasnt published in any big US papers on July 4th or even the  3rd to celebrate Independence Day.

Click HERE  and be fascinated and filled with pride at what these men did as boys and try to imagine what they saw and experienced first hand.  We celebrate our Independence each year while these men were there and part of the troops making this a free country.  WOW!
