Valley+Forge+-+Greg+S.



The picture is obviously from the winter spent at Valley Forge. The picture shows me that the winter in valley forge was very cold and miserable. The soldiers in the picture do not look very well equipped or ready for a long winter. But the soldier standing at attention shows me that though the winter was long and cold, the soldiers came out of it with more conviction and training than when they entered the camp. The leader of the continental army during the war was George Washington, over 2,500 Americans died during the winter. -Gregory Spillman
