SUMMARY:REV250 at the Lincoln Depot:   Bite the Bullet!   Revolutionary War Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Bite-the-Bullet!\nRevolutionary War Medicine \nSaturday\, June 20\, 2026 at 2:00 pm\nwith Matthew Weigman\, Washington’s Headquarters State Historic Site \nIt’s the late 1770s\, and you’ve been in the Continental Army for two years. You’ve only faced the British on a few occasions – and it didn’t go well. But you walked away unscathed…for now. It’s brutally cold and you’ve got 20 miles more to march through the snow before reaching camp; your feet are wrapped only in thin linen\, and they’re starting to turn blue\, in some spots ashen gray. What could THAT mean? It can’t be good… \nSo many things can bring about your untimely demise. A bullet wound to the abdomen\, means a likely death.    A simple infection? Death. The Flu\, measles\, small pox…death. Each letter home might be your last.\nWhat was it like to face such conditions? What was it like for the medical professionals who cared for soldiers facing those terrible conditions?\nJoin us at the Lincoln Depot Museum as we welcome Matthew Weigman from the nearby Washington’s Headquarters State Historic Site in Newburgh\, NY\, as he presents a candid look at Revolutionary War medicine.
