Underway!

For the first time, UK and US flags have been planted side-by-side to remember the lives lost on both sides at The Battle of Bunker Hill in 1775. Thank you @bostonNHP, @homebaseprogram and American Legion Post 26 for inviting us to be part of this collaborative effort.

USS Constitution will be open for public tours on Memorial Day, Monday, May 27, 2024, and will fire a 21-gun salute at noon. The salute will consist of one round being fired every minute, for 21 minutes. The crew will also hold a special presentation at 11:30 a.m.

The #NewEngland militiamen killed at #BunkerHill on June 17, 1775 were a melting pot of English, Scots, Irish, Indigenous + Blacks. 176 of the men fighting that day were Irish-born, + hundreds more were sons of #Irish indentured servants. #bostonirish irishboston.blogspot.com/202…
