It was 223 years ago today (April 17th, 1790) that the great Ben Franklin passed away. From diplomat, to scientist, to inventor, this guy had an impact when he was alive and still does today. From the freedoms we enjoy as citizens of this country to the reading glasses we wear, Mr. Franklin contributions should never be underestimated.

Jim,
I don’t believe these historical heroes get the recognition they deserve. Their achievements become lost in history and forgotten as time goes on. Thanks for keeping their memory alive!!
Tiswell,
Allow me to put a plug for the 3rd New Jersey Regiment, as re-enactors such as you and your men is what keeps history alive! Lecture on Alexander Hamilton September 24th at the Iron Horse in Westwood @7:00pm-ish. Hosted by the Revolutionary War Roundtable. David Whieldon does a great job putting this together.
