About the Lexington Minute Men:
The Lexington Minute Men are dedicated to honoring those brave Patriots who have made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our Nation's freedom. From those who first fell on Lexington Green, to the heroes of today, we hope to continue telling the story of American Independence. The Lexington Minute Men is the second oldest independent military organization in the Western Hemisphere. Chartered by the Massachusetts Governor’s Council on Sept. 6, 1689, the unit was originally known as the Second Military Company in Cambridge. The first commander was LT David Fiske, an English immigrant. Learn more about the Lexington Minute Men here.
