April 19th marked the date of the beginning of the US Revolution, the battle
of Lexington and Concord.  The objective of the British landing force was
to sieze the powder magazine in Conchord.  That was a decisive moment since
the Redcoats couldn't bring the volume of powder that matched what was at the
armory.  One of the volunteer's only job that night was stay at the magazine
and burn it down if it looked like the Redcoats could capture it.

Manufacturing and private ownership in the States was also a must have in the
early days due to the king not having the money or sympathy to protect the
new colonists from natives and aggressors from other countries.  Telling the
subjects to arm themselves was a critical move towards not needing a king and
his army.
