Vice-President Jimmy Kilbourne shared a 250th minute: April 1776; one year after Lexington and Concord the American Strategy to win independence begins to mature. On land, Washington marches the Army towards New York to prepare to engage the British, the fledgling Navy scores several victories against British warships on the high seas and Coastal Atlantic area, the United Colonial government bans British commercial shipping from using American ports, they will only deal with France, Spain, etc. North Carolina is the first Colony post Declaration of Independence to ratify its own set of resolutions called the Halifax Resolves that clearly call for leaving England by rebellion.
Vice President Kilbourne then gave Compatriot Michael Walsh the floor to introduce the guest speaker, Geoff Baggett, who shared an outstanding presentation called “Revolutionary War in a Trunk,” detailing the attire and weaponry worn and used by soldiers and militiamen in the Revolutionary War.
