Drake's Regiment of Militia also known as the 2nd New Hampshire Militia Regiment was called up at Portsmouth, New Hampshire on September 8, 1777 as reinforcements for the Continental Army during the Saratoga Campaign. The regiment marched quickly to join the gathering forces of General Horatio Gates as he faced British General John Burgoyne in northern New York. The regiment served in General Ebenezer Learned's brigade of the Continental Army. With the surrender of Burgoyne's Army on October 17 the regiment was disbanded on December 15, 1777.{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XSDnxlK1sMUC|title=State Builders: An Illustrated Historical and Biographical Record of the State of New Hampshire|publisher=State Builders Publishing Manchester, NH|year=1903|editor=Willey, George Franklyn}}
