Women in the American Revolution
Without the support of American women, victory in the Revolutionary War would not have been possible. They followed the Continental Army, handling a range of jobs that were usually performed by men.

The assault on Saint Francis and subsequent retreat quickly became the stuff of legend however. With French pursuit close behind and combatting weather, starvation and cannibalism, their travails would call into action all of their training as the original Army Rangers. As written down by Rogers himself, the 28 "Rules of Ranging" are still used by the US Army today. In 2017, author Sam Brakeley set out to follow in thei...
