Description

Season One of Mission History transports you to America in the 1770s and 80s. We’ll follow the path of the American Revolutionary War with a focus on two units, one from America and one from Scotland, who fought in nearly every major engagement. We’ll trace the experiences of the generals, the battlefield commanders, and the men and women on the front lines. From the cities of Boston, New York, and Philadelphia to the fields and swamps of the Carolinas and Georgia, you’ll hear the story of the birth of a new nation from a new perspective.

We’ll take you to a battlefield in Camden, South Carolina to hear from the veterans, archeologists, and forensics teams who rescued the remains of 14 soldiers from shallow graves that were in jeopardy of being destroyed. And we’ll end with the emotional, once-in-a-lifetime event that brought together dignitaries and soldiers from four nations to honor the fallen.

Mission History will travel through world history to bring you stories of legendary military leaders, epic campaigns, and secret missions that remained hidden for years: from Alexander the Great to Xerxes to Ghengis Khan; from Julius Caesar to William Wallace to Geronimo; from the Trojan War to the Viking raids to the American Revolution, and beyond. In season one, we begin with a story of timely importance. It’s the story of the armies who fought in the American Revolutionary War… because in 2022 the Camden Battlefields' caretakers were forced to make a rare and difficult decision. They needed to safeguard the resting places of those valiant soldiers whose very graves were in jeopardy of being destroyed. Hear from the men and women who rescued the remains of the fallen heroes and experience the historic event in April 2023 of the reburial ceremonies. But before that, Mission History will transport you to America in the 1770s and 80s through vivid stories of top generals, fearless battlefield commanders, and the valiant men and women who stood on the front lines. From the cities of Boston, New York, and Philadelphia to the fields and swamps of the Carolinas and Georgia, experience the American Revolutionary War like never before. ~~~ Mission History is a collaboration of Black Barrel Media and QCODE.
