- Learn about the trials and successes of George Washington and the Continental Army during their time camped at Valley Forge. In December, 1777, General George Washington moved the Continental Army to their winter quarters at Valley Forge. Though Revolutionary forces had secured a pivotal victory at Saratoga in September and October, Washington’s army suffered defeats at Brandywine, Paoli, and Germantown, Pennsylvania. The patriot capital, Philadelphia, fell into British hands. By the time the army marched into Valley Forge on December 19, they were suffering not only from cold, hunger, and fatigue, but from low morale in the wake of the disastrous Philadelphia Campaign.
David Lawrence is a ranger at Valley Forge National Historic Park.

Oh I hope you join SAR.
Genealogist grandmothers left me a legacy of 8 soldiers 1signer... but during lockdown I found 8 more ancestors on Rev War rosters. So, a very special 17 of my DNA contributors spilled blood sweat and tears for Liberty I grew up with.

My 7th Great GrandFather was Encamped at Valley Forge, New Jersey 2nd Continental Line. Continental Regulars. 1777. I'm From Philadelphia
As did mine, he was the first of my surname to arrive in America in 1752. He was also present at the Battle of Trenton and Washington crossing the Delaware as a Private in the Springfield Township Militia.
More history, real American history needs to be taught in our schools!
Want to see Garry Adlemann do videos at Valley Forge and at Washington Crossing PA & NJ for The Battle of Trenton

You're lucky you weren't forced to endure the hardships of those men at Valley Forge - cold, disease, etc. "These are the times that try men's souls" - Thomas Paine

First!
“Biggest city in American”. Our native settlement’s were 2-4 times the size 😂
By the time Philadelphia was the biggest city, places like Tenochtitlan and especially Cahokia were sadly long gone.
I think they meant the population. Native Americans were a bit more spread out over their territories. Unless I’m wrong. :)
I'm disliking this video because my teacher is making watch it and I dont wanna >:c
Don't take it out on us! 😃
I'm doing an assignment for my teacher, it's only 4 min and it's entertaining. You brain rot child.
