  • Summary

  • Mission History will travel through world history to bring you stories of legendary military leaders, epic campaigns, and secret missions that remained hidden for years: from Alexander the Great to Xerxes to Ghengis Khan; from Julius Caesar to William Wallace to Geronimo; from the Trojan War to the Viking raids to the American Revolution, and beyond. In season one, we begin with a story of timely importance. It’s the story of the armies who fought in the American Revolutionary War… because in 2022 the Camden Battlefields' caretakers were forced to make a rare and difficult decision. They needed to safeguard the resting places of those valiant soldiers whose very graves were in jeopardy of being destroyed. Hear from the men and women who rescued the remains of the fallen heroes and experience the historic event in April 2023 of the reburial ceremonies. But before that, Mission History will transport you to America in the 1770s and 80s through vivid stories of top generals, fearless battlefield commanders, and the valiant men and women who stood on the front lines. From the cities of Boston, New York, and Philadelphia to the fields and swamps of the Carolinas and Georgia, experience the American Revolutionary War like never before. ~~~ Mission History is a collaboration of Black Barrel Media and QCODE. The presenting sponsor of Season 1 is the Historic Camden Foundation.

  • The Camden Burials Project | Episode 9

    The Camden Burials Project | Episode 9
    Nov 15 2023
    In the fall of 2022, archeologists and forensic anthropologists undertook a rare project to excavate the graves of a limited number of soldiers who fell in the Battle of Camden on August 16, 1780. The graves had been harmed by years of industry and had been targeted by relic hunters. Leaders of the Camden Burials Project made the difficult choice to remove the remains of the soldiers and rebury them to keep them safe and secure. Little did the leaders know, they were in for several surprises along the way. ~~~ Mission History is a collaboration of Black Barrel Media and QCODE.
