Lunch & Learn: Revolutionary Supply & Survival
Advertisement
Beyond the soldiers on the front lines, an entire network of military departments worked behind the scenes to keep the Continental Army alive, equipped, and in the field.
We often hear that “an army marches on its stomach,” but what happens when there’s no food—and no weapons, shoes, or clothing?
Join Park Guide Russell Brindley for a fascinating look at the essential but often overlooked roles of the Military Stores, Commissary, Clothier, and Quartermaster Departments. These systems of supply and logistics were critical to sustaining the war effort and ultimately helping secure American Independence.
Come discover how organization, supply chains, and resourcefulness shaped the outcome of the Revolution.
