  • Harold Finigan on Historic Fort Mifflin10:30 am
    Fort Mifflin is historically important because its valiant 1777 defense during the Revolutionary War delayed the British from resupplying in Philadelphia. This action gave the Continental Army, under General George Washington, precious time to retreat to Valley Forge for the winter, regroup, and become a effective fighting force. This critical delay is seen by many historians as a turning point that "saved" the American Revolution.
