It doesn’t say or give credit to the group that actually DID this reenactment.
Interesting. When Washington trudged into Valley Forge he had barely 3,000 men left out of the 30,000 he had in NY before Kips Bay.
Taking virtually every able bodied man at night in the freezing cold on a long march to cross a big river was indeed a bold move.
Valley Forge itself is over 20 miles from the river, let alone the march to Trenton.
Valley Forge was a year later than the Crossing of the Delaware. The Americans started from just across the river.
I don’t think Washington had anywhere near 30,000 troops during the Battle of Brooklyn. The British had about that number if not more.
Sadly Americans gladly traded their liberty for a TV clicker.
I just checked with a PBS video I have from the series “Liberty” and, according to that, the British had about 30,000 troops and about 10,000 sailors. 15,000 landed at Brooklyn for the battle outnumbering Wash’s force 2 to 1.
