To Quote from our Institution:
|
| |
The following Principles shall be immutable, and form the Basis of THE SOCIETY OF THE CINCINNATI
|
| |
An Incessant Attention to preserve inviolate those exalted Rights and Liberties of Human Nature for which they have fought and bled, and without which the high Rank of a Rational Being is a Curse Instead of a Blessing.
|
| |
An unalterable Determination to promote and cherish between the respective States that Union and national Honour so essentially necessary to their happiness, and the future Dignity of the American Empire.
|
| |
To render permanent the cordial Affection subsisting among the officers; this Spirit will dictate Brotherly Kindness in all things, and particularly extend to the most substantial Acts of Beneficence, according to the Ability of the Society, towards those Officers and their Families who unfortunately may be under the Necessity of receiving it.

| The purpose of this site is to help increase public awareness of the importance of the Revolutionary War era and its men to the history of our nation. |
