Groton's Company B in front of Minuteman Common. Many soldiers of the Sixth Regiment were direct descendants of those who had marched to the Revolution on April 19, 1775, and some were even descendants of men who fought at Lexington or Concord. This original black and white photo was colorized by the Groton Herald.
Dr. Norman Smith, Surgeon of the "Old Sixth"
