quote [ Kicked out of his home country of Germany for his sexual orientation, “Baron Von Steuben” was responsible for whipping the the U.S. military into shape when things were looking bleakest. ]
Valley Forge is still one of my favorite all time monuments to visit. They kind of gloss over a lot of his more *ahem* colorful exploits, but, it's made very clear that the US army had zero chance against the British without this guys training, organization, and military insights.
