Welcome The Depot About Us Tribute

"To be killed in war is not the worst that can happen... to be forgotten is the worst."


-For centuries, hundreds of Revolutionary War heroes have rested in unmarked, silent graves beneath the soil of the Fishkill Supply Depot. Once lost to time, these brave souls who sacrificed everything for America's independence are finally being brought out of the shadows of history. Through relentless archival and historical research, our ongoing mission is to unearth their identities and give them back their names. Today, we are proud to announce that our list of identified soldiers has grown to 91—three more forgotten patriots whose stories, courage, and ultimate sacrifices will now be remembered and honored for generations to come-
