January 17th was the 244th anniversary of the Patriots' victory over the British at Cowpens in South Carolina. The Patriots were led by General Daniel Morgan whose battle plan was reminiscent of Hannibal's masterful victory over the Romans at Cannae.
The Col James Wood II Chapter commemorated Morgan's victory at his tomb in Mount Hebron Cemetery, though the ceremony was moved inside the cemetery's chapel due to the cold weather.
Vice President Mark Crain presented the chapter wreath and Chaplain John Kuvakas gave the benediction. Mark was joined by Bill Schwetke in participating in the Color Guard.
