Dear, Elise Littlefield,

Hello its me Dakota. Iam at Valley Forge. How is everything back at Plymouth? I joined the Continental Army because the Boston Tea Party I couldnt drink the tea.
Life here sucks. We live in a 16 by 14 foot hut. The walls are only 6 feet high and built in a pit two feet below the ground with a dirt floor. I sleep in the hut with 12 other men. The soilders are becoming sick from dysentery and typhus because the soilder go to the bathroom outside the hut so when you wake up from the cold night you walk outside and step in a big pile of crap. When it rain it washes the crap and pee in the tent. The only thing we eat is fire cakes and there are about 10,000 soilders here.
Well the good side is Gernal Washington dicided to pull his finger out of his butt and tell the soilders to go to the bathroom somewhere else if they dont they get 5 leashes. Washington got about 4,000 men vaccinated for the small poxs . He also told us to cut window out for circulation in the springs. Washington is kind of a retard of Brooklyn Height. He got us corner by the British and we had to escape in the fog by boat. Baron Von Steuben help the men use the banet and shoot better and made them fit.
I dont like the revolution because all my friends are dying but some one has to do it so that we can live in a free country. I will be home soon to see you! I am not going to relist because i want to get married and start a family.
Forever and always,
Love,
Dakota Cohen
