Thomas Jefferson was a writer, an inventor, a lawyer, a philosopher, a statesman, and of course a soldier.
Wait, what?
Yes, indeed. Thomas Jefferson was named commander of the militia in Albemarle County. It could be argued that the title was little more than ceremonial, but then again…Jefferson saw no combat. It’s entirely possible that his mere presence was a deterrent to the British, who wanted no part of this fierce warrior.
It’s not likely, but it’s possible.
OK, I’m kind of in a mood today, I admit. Go listen to Mike and his story of Jefferson the Soldier.
