Valley Forge was a place where George Washington and his troops settled for the Winter of 1777. Many soldiers died from the bad conditions, but the ones who survived came out to be better soldiers because Washington trained them. The soldiers should have left Valley Forge because it was a place of death, illness, and bad supplies. In the Estimates of Illness and Deaths (Doc A), 2500 soldiers died and 50% of soldiers were ill. Seeing how many people died, it makes you see how high of a chance you have of dying too. Half of the people at Valley Forge were sick. Most of the deaths were from the soldiers being ill. From the Diary of Dr. Waldo (Doc C), he was talking about how bad of conditions him and the others were.
