In this special bonus episode, Jim Rand tells the story of the colonial militias — the farmers, blacksmiths, and shopkeepers who formed America’s first fighting forces. Long before a professional Continental Army existed, ordinary men left their fields and workshops to defend their own communities. This is a story about local responsibility, quiet courage, and the belief that free people must be prepared to protect what they have built.
