History

Although the Battle of New Orleans took place 2 weeks after the War of 1812 officially ended, it was still a significant victory for the United States with long lasting implications. 

Our narratives go beyond battles and celebrated commanders; they focus on everyday Americans who answered an extraordinary summons—the citizen‑soldier.

 

The stories we tell are not just about military campaigns or famous leaders. They are about ordinary Americans who answered an extraordinary call: the Citizen Soldier.

December 26, 1991, is a date most Americans pass over without notice. There was no parade, no surrender ceremony, no moment that felt like a clean victory. And yet that was the day the Cold War officially ended, marked by the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the quiet conclusion of a conflict that shaped nearly half a century of American life.

 

Our chronicles don’t center solely on wars or celebrated generals—they spotlight the ordinary Americans who rose to an exceptional duty: the citizen‑soldier.

 

The American Revolution did not begin with a professional army waiting in formation. It began with ordinary people who believed liberty required something from them. They understood that freedom was not handed down; it had to be defended.
