The low estimate of American soldiers who died at Valley Forge during the winter of 1777-1778 is around 1,000. Many soldiers succumbed to disease, malnutrition, and exposure to harsh winter conditions. While exact numbers are difficult to ascertain, this figure highlights the severe hardships faced by the Continental Army during that critical period of the American Revolutionary War.
The particularly severe winter of 1777-1778 proved to be a great trial for the American army, and of the 11,000 soldiers stationed at Valley Forge, hundreds died from disease.
