The Rev. Bart Muller will begin the summer series at 11 a.m. Tuesday in his talk about the 20th New York United Turner Rifles, a New York-established regiment whose foreign-speaking members participated in the landing and battles of Forts Hatteras and Clark. Muller will discuss the origins of the regiment’s movement, German nationalism, immigration and its history after Hatteras, according to a release.
