At the Virginia convention held May 1775, The Colony was divided into 16 districts and each district instructed to raise and discipline a battalion of men “to march at a minute’s notice.”
On July 17, 1775 a cadre of 350 men called the Culpeper Minute Men were organized under a large oak tree in “Clayton’s old field”
They adopted uniforms consisting of hunting shirts of strong, brown lines, dyed with an extract of the leaves of trees. On the breast of each shirt was worked in large white letters the words: “LIBERTY OR DEATH.”
Their flag had a rattlesnake with 13 rattles, coiled in the center, ready to strike. Underneath it were the words: “DON’T TREAD ON ME.” On either side were the words: “LIBERTY OR DEATH.” And at the top “THE CULPEPER MINUTE MEN.”
No sooner were they formed than the companies of Culpeper Minute Men were absorbed into regiments of the Continental Line, and by Act of Assembly in October 1776, they were dissolved and merged into the militia. Many went on to serve, and die in places like Valley Forge.
As with much of the art created in an era long before “cut-n-paste”, many versions exist. The snake and the text on the Magpul “Liberty or Death” T-shirt are inspired from some of the more rare versions of this original artwork.

For this week’s Friday Focus, we’re taking a look at the FirstSpear Asset shirt. Designed and engineered to “be a gunfighter’s best friend”, Asset is a combat shirt designed to offer high heat and flash flame protection, as well as featuring a generous neck cut to accommodate balaclavas or neck sleeves.
The torso of the Asset is constructed of Polartec Flame Retardant fabric, with a thinner, wicking mesh in the armpit area, which is treated with an antimicrobial finish. The sleeves of the Asset are made of FirstSpear P Aramid, a Kevlar-based flame retardant fabric which is also highly abrasion resistant and durable. Also featured on the sleeves are low-profile Velcro attachment points and pockets also made of FS P Aramid.
The Stretch Alpha Sweater combines the warmth and moisture transport of an insulating layer with the durability and mobility of a softshell. The jacket is built out of three layers; starting with a grid fleece that pulls moisture away from the body towards a layer of Polartec® Alpha® Insulation. The Alpha® Insulation traps and retains body heat while continuing to transport moisture to the outer shell where moisture spreads and evaporates. The final layer is a flexible 4-way stretch woven fabric that is highly durable and protects you from the wind and rain.
Features:
Insulated hood
Front zip
Internal left chest pocket
Hand pockets
Materials:
Polartec® Alpha® Insulation – 60g
Polartec® Power Grid® Fleece
Tweave® Durastretch® Nylon with DWR
