This program has given us an opportunity to tell you about a National Treasure which has been all but completely absent with leave from americas historical memory. Even when United States history was required as a summit in high school and subject in the high school and colleges and many universities, textbooks and courses had very little to say about women, how they had contributed to the winning of world war i, world war ii, the wars in korea and vietnam.

It wasnt until about 4 00 the next morning on december 26, the army was across and ready to march to trenton. Prelude to our story is the new York Campaign in the summer and fall of 1776. The british landed an army on Staten Island shortly after the declaration of independence. There were a series of defeats f

Gunshot. You see here as officer denton little getting distracted by a scuffle. Lawrence graham in the passenger seat jump tss out with a handgun. The whole event takes a few seconds. A lot happenedn those moments. Little says when he realized gram was running and holding a gun and that graham was looking at him. At this point gramed going to shoot at officer little. So officer little fired three shots hitting graham twice. His gun was found over a fence in adjacent field. After an investigation no charges were filed. Investigators say the shooting was justified.
