Artillery Park at Valley Forge in Pennsylvaina
The Artillery Park gave the Americans a flexible defense. But camp roads were deep in mud; horses were starving so it may have been fortunate that an attack never came. General Knox commanded and trained the Continental Artillery. With a gun crew of 14 men for each 6 pounder, precise teamwork was essential. There were a variety of cannons here, some were made in America while others were acquired from France or captured from the British.
