Remember, Lafayette was but a teenager when he came over here to help our cause.

True Hero

All Americans today still owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to Gen. Lafayette!

So very true.

There is a replica of the ship that brought him here, the “Hermione”, which is currently on a good will tour of the East Coast. I had hoped to visit it when it reached Maryland, but I was unable to do so.

Thank you for the ping, FRiend.
