(Fort Pitt 1778, Garrison Duty)   (Northern PA Campaign)
 
  COMMENTARY
  The battle of Monmouth was the first major battle in which the British faced a well-disciplined army, which was fresh from their training at Valley Forge. The battle was considered a draw; the heat of the day, and the heavy uniforms took their toll, resulting in 100 men succumbing to heatstroke.
