Valley forge would you have quit? yes if I were a soldier at valley forge I would have quit and there are many reasons why, first off “there were no beds, just straw on the mud floor” (Background essay) and also there were soldiers getting ill and dying and also freezing. “They had nasty clothes and nasty cookery” (Document C) . When they arrived at valley forge it was winter so they were dying of hypothermia. “You could see a soldier's bare feet through his worn out shoes” (Document C). That's just a few of the reasons why I would have quit.
In the winter of valley forge there was around 12,000 soldiers but soon when february arrives over 4,000 soldiers have left or either died and now we have 8,000 soldier's remaining.
