History of the PRINCETON 1777 Battle Streamer
After the successful coup at Trenton in December 1776, General Washington's forces, though outnumbered, skillfully outmaneuvered British troops led by General Cornwallis. Facing a precarious situation with their backs to the Delaware River, Washington's men quietly slipped away during the night of January 2-3, 1777, leaving their campfires burning to deceive the enemy. They swiftly moved southward and eastward, surprising British forces at Princeton and securing a victory despite being outnumbered. This strategic maneuver forced the British to retreat, allowing Washington to establish his winter headquarters in Morristown, New Jersey, where the rugged terrain provided a defensive advantage. This pivotal moment marked a turning point in the Revolutionary War, showcasing American resilience and determination against British forces.
