From the battlefields of Pennsylvania, where the Continental Army endured the harsh winter at Valley Forge, to the iconic crossing of the Delaware River in Bucks County, the USA's fight for independence came to life. In Pennsylvania, the recently unveiled memorial to Captain Joseph Brant (Thayendanegea) in Brantford, Ontario, Canada, pays homage to the Native American leader allied with the British. Meanwhile, in Bucks County, the statue of General George Washington stands proudly at Washington Crossing, a site of pivotal victories. Across the Atlantic, France's Corderie Royale in Rochefort played a crucial role in supplying the American forces with essential military supplies. Back in the USA, the Bunker Hill Monument in Charlestown, Massachusetts, stands as a testament to the fierce battle that took place there in 1775. In Newburgh, New York, Washington's Headquarters in 1776 served as the location where the Army of the Revolution was disbanded when peace was declared in 1783. Today, the Museum in the grounds preserves valuable relics from the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the War with Mexico. As we reflect on these historic sites and moments, we are reminded of the courage and determination that shaped the USA's early history.
