What did the winter at Valley Forge reveal about the American patriots?
Well, they had to spend the winter somewhere. Valley Forge was mostly farmland at the time, and there was open space where the Army could pitch tents and then build cabins. They set up camp at Valley Forge in December of 1777 and stayed until June of 1778. British forces were holding Philadelphia that winter, only about 25 miles away. But if either had attacked the other in the bad weather, the attacker would have been at a disadvantage. So both sides waited for warmer weather to start a battle.
