    Default The USS Constitution's "Great Chase"

    Here a link to the Constitution museum's story about how the Constitution escaped from a British squadron:

    ALSO here is this week's installment of Historian at Home video on the subject of teamwork onboard Old Ironsides:

    BTW -- at about the 10:30 mark of the video showing sail being set you will see a tall monument in the background -- this is the Battle of Bunker Hill monument on Breed's Hill (where the battle actually took place).
