The Geriatric Masshole Who Murdered Redcoats
Samuel Whittemore fought in the American Revolution. He fought despite the fact that he was born in 1696. At 78 years old, Whittemore, who'd already served in two wars prior to the American Revolution, ambushed a British unit, completely by himself. Why? Because the man was A) a fierce patriot who'd been heavily involved in colonial politics for over a decade, and B) an absolute animal. Find out about Whittemore's life and what happened when he took on an entire British unit by himself in 1775 after the Battles of Lexington and Concord.
