Sanitation
• Sanitation was a huge concern for the soldiers at Valley Forge. Those who worked hard at keeping clean stayed healthier than those that didn’t. Many even died from not paying mind to sanitation.

In our studies of the American Revolution, General Washington and
the Continental Army had a tough time dealing with short enlistment periods
and bouts of desertion.

The American regular army was made up of soldiers from the colonies
![Page 16: Revolutionary war and valley forge vocabulary power point](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042700/5594c34e1a28ab803d8b4658/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Continental Army was led by General George Washington and was the first real official army the colonies
ever had besides the local militias.

Morale was an important part of the success and failure of the Continental Army during the
American Revolution

Rations referred to a set amount of food and supplies to be used by the soldiers to conserve their supplies
![Page 22: Revolutionary war and valley forge vocabulary power point](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042700/5594c34e1a28ab803d8b4658/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Rationing by the Continental Army was a necessity many times because of the constant shortages of food, clothing,
and ammunition.

Quartering of soldiers during the period leading up to the revolution
angered many colonists greatly.

Wintering took place during the coldest months of the year when the
armies would settle into camp and not fight
![Page 31: Revolutionary war and valley forge vocabulary power point](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042700/5594c34e1a28ab803d8b4658/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

![Page 33: Revolutionary war and valley forge vocabulary power point](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042700/5594c34e1a28ab803d8b4658/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The enlistment time in the Continental Army was very short at first. Then the
term of service was lengthened because they needed soldiers.
