I have stood on the Patriots' side of that very bridge, imagined the tyrannical government's troops approaching on the other side -- and asked myself if I would have been willing to fire that shot.

Not so for the Minutemen -- everything they owned and loved was at risk -- but one of them pulled the trigger anyway...

“Lives, Fortunes, Sacred Honor...”
That’s what it’s all about.
