Standing on the banks of the Delaware near Philadelphia, host Dave Stotts recalls the victory at Trenton, New Jersey when the Continental Army crossed the Delaware and overcame the Hessian troops under the command of Colonel Rall. At Monmouth Battlefield State Park Dave introduces the "first Pentagon", a dining room at Ford House that served as meeting place for the leaders of the Continental Army in the two winters that Washington and his troops prepared for the final battles of the Revolutionary War.
