He, and thousands of young boys and teenagers, joined the fife and drum corps as both his father and uncle shouldered the call. While fifing was Nixon\u2019s introduction to war, it appealed to him and became a true skill. The tune book Thomas carried in battle is one of fourteen known books of its kind in existence. It is also a rare depiction of fife tunes that includes harmonies. As founding member of the Middlesex County Volunteer Fifes &amp; Drums, Steven Taskovics, discusses the significance of the tune book and the fifers\u2019 role in directing the Revolutionary War.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Battle of Camden &#8211; Presented by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC3KfELiIm0fy_VhiE37xKWQ\">SouthCarolinaETV<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"#TBT- The Battle of Camden\" width=\"1040\" height=\"780\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PpGIM_n2Mk0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>The Battle of Camden chronicles the events that took place leading up to the battle near Camden, SC.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Camden: Defeat and Destruction | The Southern Campaign &#8211; Presented by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC3KfELiIm0fy_VhiE37xKWQ\">SouthCarolinaETV<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Camden: Defeat and Destruction | The Southern Campaign\" width=\"1040\" height=\"585\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_rJ9zPHFHcg?start=42&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>On August 16, 1780, General Horatio Gates&#8217; army, joined by militia men from North Carolina and Virginia, marched south toward the British outpost in Camden, South Carolina.
