George Washington Versus the Continental Army: Showdown at the New Windsor Cantonment, 1782-1783
Author, historian, and veteran Michael S. McGurty discusses one of the last critical moments of the Revolutionary war based on his book “George Washington Versus the Continental Army: Showdown at the New Windsor Cantonment, 1782-1783 (2023).
The day America almost became a banana republic. Since that day until the Civil War, the army has never drawn arms against the country. Since the end of that war which rivers of blood concluded, the army has again never moved against the civilian power and never again will.
Whenever there was danger of conspiracy in those early years, you can bet that Gates, Conway or Lee(no relation to lighthouse Harry) were behind it.
