It's becoming a common thread with my responses this week. I pose a question.

How else except for Divine Intervention could 9,000 men cross the very angry East River under the cover of darkness or fog and avoid being seen or heard by the British who had constant watch against such a move?

With no other option, General George Washington ordered his men across the river to avoid capture and the loss of the war. Amazing and miraculous. Thank you Tara.

Freedom ain’t free!

These men earned their freedom and ours!

We must never forget the trials these men went through to gain independence from a tyrannical government!

Thank you, Tara, for this important story of what it took to gain their freedom and ours!

Washington had the Lord on his side!

Washington stayed to the end. What would Kamala Harris and Tim Walz do? Think about it when you vote…

I think the answer to that question is obvious to all who have been paying attention. They also know what Trump and Vance would do because they both did. Action speak louder than words.

My old Maryland National Guard regiment, the 115th Infantry from the 29th Infantry Division, traces its lineage back to the 1st Maryland of the Revolution (basically all the Maryland NG units do so).

Divine intervention is common thread for George Washington and the war itself. Time to pray is upon us now. I will.

Sure seems like they had Divine help. What an outstanding leader Washington was for his men. No wonder they were willing to follow him. He didn’t ask them to go where he wasn’t willing to go himself. To lead means to go ahead of or in this case stay behind until all your men are safe.

I always wanted Washington to buy my lotto tickets for one of those big payout ones…

This was certainly a miraculous divine intervention! Amazing to say the least. The ruse of the camps by Mifflin’s Brigade was carried out perfectly! And the Continentals survived another loss to fight again! Thanks, Tara!

🇺🇲 Thick fog for the Brooklyn side of the river, no fog for the Manhatten side, amazing.

I'm sure there's some meteorological term for that, though it sure seems like Divine Intervention. 🇺🇸

Thanks, TR!

Yes, there is room in “military command” for temperament by leaders. (Provided that, wisdom and patience proceed it!)
