Who came to visit Genral Washington when he was at Valley Forge?

It wasn't all war. Many went home to take care of the family farm. There were so many they were called "sunshine patriots". The colonies were 95% farmers. In Valley Forge there is a fable about the men starving, not having shoes, and in the cold. This is not true. Federal park historians have found that they were well fed, clothed, and in warm huts. The officer wives joined their husbands. Washington in his letters to Congress couldn't admit this because he knew they would cut funds. So, he spun a story. The 10,000 man army was supplied each month with a million pounds of flour, a million pounds of meat and fish. Each man was allotted more than 3 pounds of flour, meat, and fish per day.

What was the food aboard a caravel?

Aboard a caravel, sailors primarily consumed non-perishable foods due to limited storage and the need for durability during long voyages. Their diet often included hardtack (a type of hard biscuit), salted meat or fish, dried legumes, and cheese. Fresh foods like fruits and vegetables were limited and typically consumed early in the voyage, as they spoiled quickly. Water and occasionally wine or beer served as their primary beverages, with careful rationing due to limited supplies.
