What do you see? What are the people doing? Where is Washington? Describe him.

Who is standing by Washington? Imagine what the men are saying and feeling.

Excerpts from a Diary - December 25-26, 1776 "Christmas, 6 P.M….It is fearfully cold and raw and a snow-storm setting in. The wind is northeast and beats in the faces of the men. It will be a terrible night for the soldiers who have no shoes. Some of them have tied old rags around their feet, but I have not heard a man complain….I have never seen Washington so determined as he is now…He is calm and collected, but very determined. The storm is changing to sleet and cuts like a knife…. [3 A.M.] we have to force the boats through the floating ice….”

”… 2,873 men in camp, barefooted and almost naked."

Are the paintings and journals different? If you were Washington, what would you have done? Why?

How important were they?

Statue of Lafayette Because he acknowledged no duty more sacred than to fight for the freedom of his fellow men....Woodrow Wilson

What do you think of Lafayette? How would you design his statue? How would you design your own?

I came here, where freedom is being defended, to serve it, and to live and die for it. General Casimir Pulaski in a letter to General George Washington

General Pulaski from POLAND: Hero Sacrificed Inspired others

How is he shown? What was his job? Do you think he survived? "Father of the American cavalry"
