'In 1775, Paul Revere ...'
J.L. Bell catches the media making a boo-boo about Paul Revere. ... OK, so the 181st Infantry Regiment obviously wasn't led by Revere. But my question is: Did any organized unit fight both at Lexington Green and Concord on April, 19, 1775? My understanding is that perhaps more than a few stragglers from Lexington followed the Redcoats to Concord (though probably NOT to the North Bridge) and then harassed them all the way back to Boston. But an entire Regiment? Maybe J.L. can help out. ... Maybe Charles can help out too. ... Or maybe Bacon's Dictionary of Boston. ... Or maybe Mr. Peabody. ... BTW: Good luck to the 181st -- and thank you. ... J.L. link via Adam.
