Episode Notes
As a former Appleseed instructor and Shoot Boss, I had the opportunity to teach a marksmanship/history project that had me master the origins and details of the first month of the First American Revolution. I cover the “Three Strikes of the Match” that we used as an organization to educate folks about the marriage between marksmanship and liberty that initiated the divorce from London in 1775.
