Long Description:
After years of downward-spiraling relations between Britain and her American colonies, events reached the breaking point in 1775. The Second Continental Congress convened just in time to hear about battles at Lexington & Concord. These were soon followed by battles at Bunker Hill, Fort Ticonderoga, Fort St. Jean, Montreal and Quebec City. George Washington is appointed Continental Commander, Ben Franklin Postmaster General, creation of the Continental Army, Navy and Marines. Congress sends the Olive Branch Petition to try to reconcile, but instead King George III declared the Colonies in rebellion. And Patrick Henry delivers his "Give me Liberty, or give me Death!" speech. Panel by NSDM staff moderated by Capt. Mark McDonagh, USN/ret., physicist and former nuclear submarine officer with 12 years' experience at the Naval War College
