The 235th Anniversary Commemoration Of The March Into Valley Forge ... It Happened On This Day In 1777

It is December 19, 2012 and I traveled to Valley Forge National Historical Park for the 235th Anniversary Commemoration of The March Into Valley Forge. On this day, in the year 1777, George Washington and the Continental Army marched into this location. Tonight, we commemorate this event.

Note: This was more of an observance or a remembrance rather than an actual reenactment.

Here is a brief video of the Commemoration:

I snapped a number of photographs as well. Some will be redundant because I switched between the "Auto" and "Night Portrait" features and I liked both styles.





First, a tour guide walked visitors up the hill.





Two passwords were needed to get past the guards and into the area of the Replica Muhlenberg Brigade Huts.
