From the French and Indian War to World War II, follow the stories of the patriotism, sacrifice, courage and heroism of our grandfathers, fathers and men like them who answered the call to serve their country. Relive the days of Benedict Arnold and his Revolutionary troops’ incredible tale of survival and disastrous march on Quebec. Follow Shadrach Hudson and his harrowing escape at the Battle of a Thousand Slain when half of the American Army is wiped out in 1791. Venture back to the closing stages of the Civil War, and the infamous Battle of the Crater during the siege of Petersburg and much, much more.
