Thy beaming sword shall never rust,
Maryland!
Remember Carroll’s sacred trust,
Remember Howard’s warlike thrust,-
And all thy slumberers with the just,
Maryland! My Maryland!
Michael and David dive into Patrick K. O’Donnell’s Washington’s Immortals: The Untold Story of an Elite Regiment Who Changed the Course of the Revolution. They trace the remarkable journey of the Maryland regulars—from the desperate early battles in New York and New Jersey to the brutal campaigns of the Southern Theater. This episode highlights the grit, sacrifice, and leadership of some of America’s first true heroes in a war that hung by a thread more than once.
