    67 - TAMING THE DARK AND BLOODY GROUND | Daniel Boone (Frontiersman) | Revolutionary War

    In 1778, during the American Revolutionary War, Daniel Boone was captured by the Shawnee Indians.   Though a prisoner, he studied their language. When he learned of an impending attack on Boonesborough that was encouraged, supplied, and paid for by the British, he escaped the Shawnee village.   Running 160 miles in five days, he warned the settlement.   The siege that followed was one of Daniel Boone’s finest hours. Heavily outnumbered and low on food and supplies, Boone led the defense of the fort with calm and capable resolve.   The settlers held out until the Shawnee attackers, and their British advisors, withdrew. Boonesborough survived, and Boone’s reputation soared.   Yet fame did not bring him fortune. The unscrupulous took advantage of him. He always believed a handshake should be good enough.   He would, however, end up surrendering his claims to unscrupulous lawyers and move farther west. In Daniel Boone’s mind, there was always more land, a God-given blessing just waiting to be won.   Still, his incredible legacy remains, changing the course of American history...   I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> HEROES FOR FREEDOM MANUALS (Volumes 1-3) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   64 - FACING THE GREAT UNKNOWN...

    66 - THE TEXAS BOY WHO BECAME AN AMERICAN GIANT | Audie Murphy (U.S. Army & Actor) | WWII

    Private Audie Murphy, just over five feet tall and 17-years-old, would become the most decorated American soldier of World War II.   But his war record of unbelievable courage and fighting skill did not begin with the war. It began with family hardship and personal tragedy.   His courage came from a deeply personal place. He simply refused to abandon those who depended on him.   His list of battlefield heroics reads like a movie…or a myth.   By war’s end, now First Lieutenant Audie Murphy had earned every single U.S. combat award for valor. Several of them multiple times. He was wounded more than three times.   At war’s end, now a hardened veteran, he was just twenty years old…not old enough to vote or drink!   But America hailed him a hero. His photo filled the newspapers. And, of course, Hollywood came calling.   But though it was officially over, the war did not so easily end within his heart and soul…   I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> HEROES FOR FREEDOM MANUALS (Volumes 1-3) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   62 - "THE GHOST" WHO REFUSED TO DIE | Lt.

    65 - WHEN MARRIAGE WAS PUNISHABLE BY DEATH | Saint Valentine (Priest) | 3rd Century AD

    The iron door slammed shut with a dull thud. The torchlight wavered as the Roman guards stepped back from the cell.   Inside, kneeling on cold stone was a man who was scourged, blood dripping from his torn back. Shackles bit into his wrists and ankles. He awaited the executioner’s heavy sword.   Issuing from the Emperor’s palace the “justice” of Rome—proud, powerful, pitiless—had determined the man’s fate before he could say a word in his own defense.   What’s worse, his crime was not treason, theft, or violence.   It was love.   The Latin name of the man Caesar was putting to death was Valenteenus. We know him today as Saint Valentine.   His rebellion nearly 2,000 years ago against Rome’s edict outlawing marriages among all men of military age stands as an example particularly valid today.   And the why makes Valentine’s Day all that more important…   I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> HEROES FOR FREEDOM MANUALS (Volumes 1-3) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:     63 - THE YOUNG MOTHER SACRIFICED FOR CHRIST | Vibia Perpetua (Noblewoman & Christian Convert) | Roman Empire 56 - HISTORY'S GREATEST KNIGHT | William Marshal ("The Peacemaker") | The Middle Ages 47 - THE CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS WHO SAVED OUR WORLD | Sir Isaac Newton + More | The Enlightenment   ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: Rick@TheLegacyGen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube   Valentines Day / Christianity / Christian History / Rome / Caesar / Soldiers / Marriage / Love

    64 - FACING THE GREAT UNKNOWN... AND SMILING | Kit Carson (Mountain Man) | Civil War & Rocky Mountain West

    It’s hard to find an American frontiersman with greater skill than Kit Carson.   He left home as a young teen. By his early twenties, he was already a seasoned, well-known, mountain man. He spoke Ute, Shoshoni, Navajo, Apache, Comanche, Cheyenne, Arapaho, Paiute, as well as fluent in Spanish.   During the Mexican War, Carson famously snuck through enemy lines running 30 miles barefoot to get help. He earned a well-deserved reputation for calm bravery under fire.   Later, during the Civil War, Carson served as a Union officer in the New Mexico Territory, leading campaigns against hostile tribes to protect the civilian population.   At the Battle of Adobe Walls against a massive force of up to 3,000 Comanche and Kiowa warriors, Carson, with only 400 men, was able to repel the enemy and conduct a strategic retreat saving nearly all his men from what most thought would be a certain massacre.   Kit Carson remains a controversial American hero.

    63 - THE YOUNG MOTHER SACRIFICED FOR CHRIST | Vibia Perpetua (Noblewoman & Christian Convert) | Roman Empire

    On the day of their execution, Vibia and Felicity were led into the arena.   Vibia was forced to wear a pagan costume, one that a priestess-prostitute in the pagan temples would wear. She tore the pagan robes off her body declaring she had come freely in the name of her Lord and God.   Then, the gates were opened. An enraged, tormented cow charged them.   Vibia Perpetua, trying to protect Felicity, was hurled into the air, landing violently on her back. She rolled to her knees and gathered her clothing around her trying to preserve her modesty.   Bleeding and shaken, she stood once more, still protecting Felicity.   The crowd was touched by Vibia’s courage. Just moments before they were a screaming mob with blood in their eyes. Now they stood to honor her, many with tears on their cheeks.   To the last, Vibia Perpetua demonstrated her determination to stand for her faith, for truth, no matter the consequences.   I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> HEROES FOR FREEDOM MANUALS (Volumes 1-3) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   61 - STANDING FIRM WHEN OTHERS BOW TO TYRANNY | "Steven the Great" | Age of Discovery 27 - "THE HAMMER" WHO SAVED CHRISTIANITY | Charles Martel ("Knights of Our Lord" Leader) | 700s A.D. 08 - TWO KIDNAPPED GIRLS WHO CHANGED HISTORY | Sacajawea & Sally (Shoshoni Explorers) | American West   ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: Rick@TheLegacyGen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube   Christianity / Young Mother / Rome / Testimony of Christ / Early Third Century / Carthage / Gladiators / The Arena / Condemnation by Beasts /Missionaries

    62 - "THE GHOST" WHO REFUSED TO DIE | Lt. Matt Urban (US Army) | WWII

    Though wounded, Lieutenant Matt Urban forced himself to stand.   German machine-gun fire tore at the ground around him. His men were pinned down. A tank lurched forward in a grinding whine, its guns swiveling at them, hunting targets. Matt ignored the pain and the blood spreading on his side, snatching up a bazooka.   He dropped to one knee, sighted and fired. The rocket sizzled on its deadly path, the tank bursting into flames, the shape-charge boring a neat, glowing hole through four inches of hardened steel. Matt rallied his men, pulling wounded soldiers to safety.   Then he was hit again. Beyond what seemed humanly possible, he fought on for three more days until his body finally gave out.   The kind of courage Matt Urban showed against impossible odds was something his superiors had a hard time explaining, or the enemy accepting. But in Matt’s case, it was just who he was, accomplishing what witnesses that day could not believe…   I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> HEROES FOR FREEDOM MANUALS (Volumes 1-3) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   51 - THE ORPHAN WHO LONGED FOR WEST POINT | Sgt.

    61 - STANDING FIRM WHEN OTHERS BOW TO TYRANNY | "Steven the Great" | Age of Discovery

    Across the muddy plain the thunder of Ottoman drums rolled like an approaching storm.   The mightiest empire on earth did not come to negotiate. They came north to conquer and enslave.   100,000 of the Turkish Sultan’s best troops would attack the Christians at Vaslui in the heart of Moldavia. A decisive moment in Christian history.   Standing in opposition to the Sultan’s army was one man—Stephen III of Moldavia.   He was not tall, not wealthy, a humble man who loved his people. For Stephen possessed a rare trait. He embraced a powerful faith in Christ that refused to bow a knee to tyranny or let the world’s greedy despots enslave his people.   For more than four critical decades in the 15th century, Stephen stood as a living bulwark between Ottoman expansion and the salvation of Christian Europe.   More so to us today, the lessons he taught are precisely what we must learn…before it’s too late.   I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> HEROES FOR FREEDOM MANUALS (Volumes 1-3) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE: 56 - HISTORY'S GREATEST KNIGHT | William Marshal ("The Peacemaker") | The Middle Ages 27 - "THE HAMMER" WHO SAVED CHRISTIANITY | Charles Martel ("Knights of Our Lord" Leader) | 700s A.D. 13 - THE SAINT WHO INVADED THE D.C.

    60 - THE BATTLE FOR WAKE ISLAND: AMERICA’S SECOND ALAMO | U.S. Marines | WWII

    The Japanese high command assumed Wake Island would fall easily. On December 11, a Japanese invasion force steamed confidently toward the island. They expected the Americans to surrender without a fight.   That’s not what happened.   In December 1941, when America reeled from the Pearl Harbor defeat and one defeat after another across the Pacific, the Battle for Wake Island by this handful of courageous Americans stood as a victory every American could look to for inspiration.   “Remember Wake Island” became the cry of the American people in much the same way that “Remember the Alamo” had been shouted by soldiers under the command of General Sam Houston a century earlier.   And America remembered. What Wake Island told the world was unmistakable:   Though America was betrayed and wounded by their Japanese enemy, it was not beaten. And through sheer force of grit and raw courage, America would go on to victory.   I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> HEROES FOR FREEDOM MANUALS (Volumes 1-3) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE: 53 - THE QUIET GENIUS WHO CRACKED JAPAN'S SECRETS | Capt.
