After heartily singing various tunes to the accompaniment of musicians, the Hessians gathered everyone for a Virginia Reel.

After heartily singing various tunes to the accompaniment of musicians, the Hessians gathered everyone for a Virginia Reel.
Thus, I present to you, my dear Readers, an accounting of what I experienced while the quiet town of Williamsburg, in 1781, was occupied…Under the Redcoat.
The kids and I were captured by the Redcoats and they seemed to be targeting me!
We also attended dragoon bootcamp to spy for the Continental Army.
Suddenly the Redcoat engaged his rifle and told my kids to halt!
Where were their passes? Passes? What passes?
My son proclaimed, “I’m only 13!”
