Lewis and Clark's Corps of Discovery
This is the American Epic that takes us traveling back in time to Virginia; where Meriwether Lewis and William Clark were born.
Both had leadership qualities as they earned their ranks as Captains in the US Infantry. Lewis, as Captain in the First Infantry and Clark in the Fourth.
Their encounter, during a brief period with a rifle company, would bond them into a friendship. It was because of this friendship, Lewis called upon Clark to be his co-commander from 1804 -1806 with the "Corps of Discovery". Together they served harmoniously.
Returning from the Expedition, both Lewis and Clark served as governors. Lewis as governor of Louisiana Territory and Clark as governor of Missouri Territory plus an appointment as Superintendent of Indian Affairs in St. Louis.
