The British Redcoat!

Imagine a world where a soldier is hated by the very people he is sent to protect. His job is to keep the peace, to stop insurgents from destroying government property and to not harm government employees, yet the very people he is there to protect see him as an invader. Imagine a world where you joined the military just to get a job and two square meals a day. You have been sent halfway around the world to a place where the public spit at you and eventually try to kill you. This is the life of the common British soldier in Boston, and at Lexington and Concord in 1775. Come learn more about the life and experience of the British soldier of 1775 with Park Ranger Roger Fuller, who will be dressed as a British Redcoat, at the North Bridge Visitor Center, 174 Liberty Street, Concord, MA, Monday, 7/13/26, at 1:00 and 3:00 pm.
