Recessional of the Sons of the American Revolution:

“Until we meet again, let us remember our obligations to our
forefathers who gave us our Constitution, the Bill of Rights,

Thank you for the post. I used to live in that area and they had a biking/hiking path (Battle Trail Road) that I used to walk on with my dog for a good number of years. Passed through the Bloody Angle many times.

This happened 246 years ago today. Not so long in the context of time overall. Recent history when you think about it.
