    85 - RESCUING THE REVOLUTION | Haym Salomon (Spy & Financier) | Revolutionary War

    As British forces under General Charles Cornwallis weakly huddled at Yorktown in 1781, George Washington faced one final obstacle: the Continental Army had no money to pay troops or buy supplies.   Salvation came from Haym Salomon, a Jewish immigrant from Poland, financier, and patriot who secured the funds needed to sustain and feed the army.   Arriving in New York in 1772, Salomon embraced the American cause, joining the Sons of Liberty and later serving as a spy for Washington in British-occupied New York. Arrested and sentenced to death, he bribed a guard and escaped to Philadelphia.   Using his financial expertise and personal fortune, Salomon raised loans, extended credit, and repeatedly spent his own money to support the Revolution. His efforts helped make victory at Yorktown possible.   Yet despite sacrificing everything, he died in 1785 financially ruined, his family in poverty, and largely pushed aside—a crucial yet forgotten hero of American independence.   I’m Rick Robison and this is the FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> "FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS" MANUALS (Volumes 1-4) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE: 70 - THE GREAT STORM THAT SAVED AMERICA | The Miracle of Boston | 1700s 33 - THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION: THE MOST WORTHY AND JUSTIFIED IN HISTORY | *4th of July Special* 29 - ROMANCING THE REVOLUTION | Abigail & John Adams | Revolutionary War   ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: Rick@TheLegacyGen.com -Website: thelegacygen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube   Revolutionary War / Battle of Yorktown / Moneyman / Spy / Financier /

    84 - 250 YEARS A REPUBLIC: Do We Still Deserve It?

    Ask yourself: What do the last 250 years look like without America?   Without the American example, kings still claim divine authority “from God.” Individual liberty is silenced in its infancy. In the twentieth century, it was the United States standing against fascism when much of the world capitulated. The satanic despots of the Nazi Party, proclaiming their Reich “would rule for a thousand years.” And they were willing to murder millions to make that happen.   More threatening still, America faced down Leninism, Stalinism, Maoism, and their imitators and lackeys while entire nations disappeared behind the Iron Curtain and a hundred million people were murdered while a billion more suffered.   But America and her allies stood firm.   We are a republic grounded not in bloodline, ethnicity, or conquest, but in principle. Founded upon the Judeo-Christian belief that all men and women are created equal, endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.   We are a constitutional republic, blessed by God to be an “Ensign to the Nations.” But will we survive…?   I’m Rick Robison and this is the FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> "FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS" MANUALS (Volumes 1-4) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   68 - REMEMBERING OUR HEROES | Commemorating 250 Years of Freedom 55 - THE WORDS THAT FIRED A REVOLUTION | Patrick Henry (Founding Father) | Revolutionary War 33 - THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION: THE MOST WORTHY AND JUSTIFIED IN HISTORY | *4th of July Special*   ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: Rick@TheLegacyGen.com -Website: thelegacygen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube   Declaration of Independence / America’s 250th / America’s Birthday / Founding Fathers / Independence / 4th of July / Liberty / Freedom / Revolutionary War / Constitution

    83 - THE DIPLOMAT WHO DEFIED HITLER | Raoul Wallenberg (Swedish Official) | WWII

    Threatening clouds hung low over Budapest, Hungary.   Soldiers shouted orders, dragging men, women, even children from their homes.   The icy wind cut through the thin clothing of the terrified Jewish families as they were forced toward the banks of the Danube River. There, in the gray dawn, the soldiers lined them up shoulder to shoulder.   “Shoes off!” Shouted the Nazi officer.   The people obeyed. A mother clutched her young son, whispering prayers next to his ear. An old man stared blankly at the black water that had already swallowed the bodies of those shot moments before.   Many were tied together in groups of three—especially the children—with only the middle child shot to save ammo before all three were pushed into the icy cold water.   Then, like an angel sent from heaven, a car swerved wildly, scattering the soldiers. The door burst open.   A tall man in a dark suitcoat leapt out, his voice cutting through the chaos,   “Stop what you are doing…! These people are under my protection!”   I’m Rick Robison and this is the FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> "FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS" MANUALS (Volumes 1-4) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   81 - SHE SAVED 2,500 KIDS FROM THE GAS CHAMBER | Irena Sendler (Polish Undergound) | WWII 77 - HER CRIME WAS SAVING OTHERS... | Edith Cavell (Nurse) | WWI 46 - THE CHRISTIAN ("MORMON") BOY WHO STOOD AGAINST HITLER | Helmuth Hubener (Anti-Nazi Resistance) | WWII   ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: Rick@TheLegacyGen.com -Website: thelegacygen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube   World War II / Holocaust / Jews / Germany / Sweden / Diplomat / Saving Lives /

    82 - HE EXPECTED TO SACRIFICE HIMSELF... | Lt. William Cushing (US Navy) | Civil War

    The Albemarle was a beast.   Protected by four-inch iron plating and sloped armor designed to deflect cannon fire, she seemed invincible.   Union shells bounced harmlessly off like pebbles. Destroying this ironclad was vital.   Traditional attacks had failed. So, Lt. Cushing proposed something bolder...   Under cover of darkness, he would sneak up to the vessel and blow a hole in her hull using the newly invented hand-guided spar torpedo.   A spar torpedo was an explosive charge attached to the end of a long pole. To use it, the attacker had to ram the explosive directly against the enemy ship and then detonate it.   Everyone understood what that meant. This was essentially a suicide mission.   Musket fire exploded from the darkness. The night erupted into chaos.   Bullets tore through the air, splintering wood and slamming into the small Union launch as it sped towards the moored Confederate ironclad warship.   But Lt. Cushing never flinched though bullets flew all around him and his men.   “Full speed ahead!” He shouted.   I’m Rick Robison and this is the FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> "FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS" MANUALS (Volumes 1-4) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   78 - SAVING THE UNION AT GETTYSBURG | Gen.

    81 - SHE SAVED 2,500 KIDS FROM THE GAS CHAMBER | Irena Sendler (Polish Undergound) | WWII

    Before dawn the sound of jackboots thudded on the outside steps, then a fist pounded her door.   “Gestapo! Open up!”   Inside the humble Warsaw apartment, a young Polish woman stood very still.   Beneath her floorboards were forged documents. In a jar were hundreds of names of Jewish children smuggled out into different Christian homes under false identities.   If the Germans found that list, those children and the families protecting them, would die.   Irena Sendler straightened her shoulders and smoothed her dress. She opened the door.   “I am Irena Sendler. What can I do for you…?”   Irena’s mission seemed impossible: To smuggle Jewish children out of the ghetto past German checkpoints and then place them with Christian families beyond the reach of the death camps.   But convincing parents to let her take their children was often the hardest part.   As expected, many parents refused.   But a few, with trembling hands and unimaginable courage would kiss their children goodbye and then place them in Irena’s loving, capable arms…   I’m Rick Robison and this is the FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> "FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS" MANUALS (Volumes 1-4) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   30 - THE AMERICAN SUPERSPY | Virginia Hall "The Limping Lady" (Anti-Nazi Resistance) | WWII 28 - SHE SAVED HUNDREDS...WITH GOD'S HELP | Harriet Tubman (Abolitionist) | Underground Railroad/Civil War 11 - "STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE...

    80 - "WOMEN CAN'T BE SURGEONS!" | Mary Walker (Union Doctor) | Civil War

    Gunfire ripped through the Georgia air. Smoke rolled low across the shattered battlefield of downed and dying men.   The wounded lay everywhere; blue and gray uniforms tangled together in mud and blood. Confederate reinforcements advanced. Battered Union troops pulled back.   Yet in the chaos, a lone female figure moved towards the danger instead of away from it.   She wore men’s trousers, hardly the approved dress of a 19th-century lady.   Dr. Mary Walker embodied a special quality that originated from that unique period in America’s history. The passion to choose practicality and efficiency over comfortable conformity.   Bullets snapped past her ears. A shell burst behind her, showering dirt across her back. That didn’t matter to her.   Time and again she defied orders to stay back, to remain “safe.” She would go where other doctors refused. And she treated both friend and foe, as well as local civilians, men, women, and children.   And on that day in 1864, near Chattanooga, Tennessee, she would be captured by the enemy…   I’m Rick Robison and this is the FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> "FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS" MANUALS (Volumes 1-4) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   77 - HER CRIME WAS SAVING OTHERS... | Edith Cavell (Nurse) | WWI 34 - THE DAY AN ANGEL APPEARED IN THE WHITE HOUSE | Rebecca Pomroy (Army Nurse) | Civil War 15 - FROM APOSTATE TO PROPHET | Abraham Lincoln | Civil War (Part ONE)   ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: Rick@TheLegacyGen.com -Website: thelegacygen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube   Surgeon / Civil War / Union Army / 1860s / Woman Doctor / Army Surgeon / Union Rebel

    79 - WITHOUT MORALITY... FREEDOM DIES | 300 Spartans | Ancient Greece (480 BC)

    History proves that “You can’t have freedom without genuine morality.”   In 480 BC, the Persian Empire’s tyrant, King Xerxes I, launched a massive invasion of Greece intending to enslave the world.   Standing against Persia was King Leonidas and his famed 300 Spartans. The stakes: the freedom of Greece and by extension, greater Europe.   The Spartans held as long as possible before fighting to the last man.   Though a tactical defeat, because of the selfless sacrifice of the Spartan defenders, the West rallied. Thermopylae became a great moral victory.   So, why does this matter today?   God-given, inherent, unalienable freedom of the individual is a Western, particularly Christian, concept.   Besides Israel, only nations influenced by the Greeks have ever embraced the idea. As the great philosopher, Leo Strauss tells us: It’s Athens and Jerusalem. Everything else is just commentary.   History proves that individual liberty comes from God through Christianity and Western Tradition. And without Judeo-Christian morality, freedom withers on the vine, history so testifies.   I’m Rick Robison and this is the FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> "FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS" MANUALS (Volumes 1-4) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   63 - THE YOUNG MOTHER SACRIFICED FOR CHRIST | Vibia Perpetua (Noblewoman & Christian Convert) | Roman Empire 27 - "THE HAMMER" WHO SAVED CHRISTIANITY | Charles Martel ("Knights of Our Lord" Leader) | 700s A.D. 19 - RESCUING CHRISTIANITY FROM CERTAIN DEATH | The Winged Hussars (Christian Knights) | 1600s   ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: Rick@TheLegacyGen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube   300 / Spartans / Athens / Persian Wars / Freedom / Morality / Battle of Marathon / Thermopylae / Ancient Greece / Sacrifice / Service / Freedom / Liberty

    78 - SAVING THE UNION AT GETTYSBURG | Gen. John Buford (Army) | Civil War

    For hours, General John Buford’s cavalry delayed wave after wave of the best troops the Confederates had, skillfully trading space for time, falling back stubbornly, but keeping to the critical heights.   Carbines cracked, artillery boomed, and horses flattened their ears in the chaos of battle.   One of the finest horsemen in the Union Army, John Buford rode calmly among his men, encouraging them, directing fire, refusing to yield.   He suffered many casualties that day. But his goal was not glory or victory. It was time.   Later that day, just as Buford’s men were about to be overwhelmed, Union heavy infantry arrived. They moved in and occupied the heights Buford’s cavalry had protected with their lives.   And they held.   The Battle of Gettysburg—and the fate of our nation—turned on the judgment and courage of one warfighter who understood the value of terrain, timing, and sacrifice.   Historians widely agree that without John Buford’s foresight and action, the Battle of Gettysburg—the pivotal battle of the Civil War—would have been lost before it began.   Despite his achievements, however, John Buford never lived to see victory...   I’m Rick Robison and this is the FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS Podcast.   **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> "FORGOTTEN PATRIOTS" MANUALS (Volumes 1-4) - Purchase on Amazon!   OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE:   52 - THE UNION'S "INFANT" HERO WHO WOULDN'T GO HOME | Johnny Clem (9yrs) | Civil War *VETERAN'S DAY SPECIAL* 49 - THE SPY CONFEDERATES NEVER SUSPECTED… | Elizabeth “Crazy Bet” Van Lew (Union Spy) | Civil War 40 - 3 MUST-SEE MOVIES FOR SEEKERS OF TRUTH | WWII, Civil War, Vietnam War   ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: Rick@TheLegacyGen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube   Civil War / Cavalry / Gettysburg / Sacrificing for Freedom / West Point / Union Army
