Could somebody PLEASE tell me what cities, towns, the 12th District is in?

Every single article I have read about Murtha fails to state where this is. And people not in Pennsylvania have no idea.

The 12th is literally a textbook gerrymander, with the head in Cambria county and the tail down in Fayette county. Johnstown is in the head...that's Moutha's home turf. Uniontown is down in the butt-end Other larger towns I can think of offhand are Washington, Connellsville, Greensburg, Latrobe, Somerset?....it sprawls over quite a few counties in the southeast corner, including the hallowed ground of Shanksville where the heroes of Flight 93 rest. Moutha despoils them and all they fought against, just the same as he does our troops.
