Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 тра 2015
- The Winter Patriots explores one of the darkest moments of the American Revolution and how the Continental Army, under the command of General George Washington, was able to save the cause of independence through one brilliant military campaign at the end of 1776 and the beginning of 1777. Follow Washington’s forces as they cross the icy Delaware River on their way to their surprise victory at the Battle of Trenton. Watch as Washington crosses the river once more and fights the British and Hessians on the Assunpink Creek and at the Battle of Princeton.
The Winter Patriots is the second animated feature presentation produced by Wide Awake Films and George Washington’s Mount Vernon - the home of General George Washington. Visit Mountvernon.org to learn more.
A man that fights for his life and freedom is a dangerous person - experienced or not.
I HAVE NO CHOICE IN THIS MATTER. THIS IS THE WAY. GOD HELP US.
Coming from a pure place, unlike so many people in recent modern times.
As an American, you can't help but be overwhelmed with a sense of awe at the unprecedented courage, boldness, and determination of those who fought---and died---to make this great nation and the concept of basic human dignity and freedom a lasting reality. We who consider ourselves to be patriots today owe Washington and his brave soldiers everything.
I'm Mexican but I find Washington's crossing of the Delaware a fascinating and encouraging story. 🇺🇸
Very good words freind with honour and respect ,but how sad it is that now after achieving all they did and a great country ,one of the biggest things they fought for dignity seems now to be forgotten ,I have seen thousands and thousands all over america homeless ,what was biggest surprise how many women and girls are suffering this life ,it's ridiculous in such a rich country and it shows the rich have become too powerfull ,and separated from people and reality democracy it seems ,gets to a point we're it doesn't work for most people ,because out of only two government party's that can get power ,so they have grown similar what the answere is I can't think ,but how do we get real honest humility back into our rich leaders ,only possibilitie would be another revolution.
One of the worst Human Conditions is forgetting your debts. We have great debts to the founding fathers and yet we dont care
Extremely arrogant to call it unprecedented buddy. As an American, it is Americans like you that make us look so ignorant
Well said ❤️🇺🇸🙌🏻
we need men like this right now to save the USA
And women. Even children if necessary.
@@MrHunting99 if they want remember they are women and children.
President Trump will save us all in the name of God
@@pushin_p5871 Trump has turned his back on you.
Yes I’d like to talk to multiple of my Grandfathers. One of my Grandfathers John Michael Wolfgang was a Private at Valley Forge and one of the men to stay. He was from Pennsylvania, at the age of 12 both of his parents were killed by Indians on March 20th, 1760. The American cause, it’s legacy, it’s constitutional liberties and freedoms is what these men fought for. As every generation must uphold as they once did. These men are inspirational and these are the men to look up to. Not discredit and undermine like the Democratic Party wants to. Democrats violated Articles 2 Section 1, Clause 2a of the constitution during the election process to allow fraud which is absolutely corrupt. It’s not what these men fought for, neither in the war of 1812, the Civil War, or WW2.
"These are the times that try men's souls. The Summer soldier and the Sunshine Patriots, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country. But he that stands right now deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny like hell is not easily conquered but the harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph!" Thomas Payne
Too bad T. Paine's writings have been highjacked by communist revolutionaries.
Proud American The biggest threat to freedom, is people trying to get rid of their freedom. I forgot who said that, but it represents a few people in American politics today, unfortunately.
@@MyBiggerProblems great civilizations fall from within
@@proudamerican7662 really? How? I imagine they would have to bastardize Paine’s writings, and take them out of context. I don’t read a lot of commie propaganda so wasn’t aware this was a thing.
These men had GOD on their side. If GOD is for you, no one can be against you.
This should be required viewing at every high school !!!!
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Thomas Jefferson
this would be seen as white supremacy in schools. look how greatly it portraits the actions of white men. this is racist today some how. Im not white. but, i love the idea of America. Im latino. i know communism. its taking over this great nation. Marxist, and Progressives will be the end. of this great nation, of freedom, and liberty. first stage take schools, and gov. positions. indoctrinate many generations. first stage is complete. second stage they will take your speech. then criminalize patriotism, and celebrate anarchism. we are in this stage today. third and last stage. take guns away, and any means for citizens to protect them selfs. free criminals to cause chaos. Gov. to protect the people. increases its powers. take control of production. welcome to communist America. this is written in history. its just that your schools will never teach you this.
The liberal left will have nothing to do with this history so we can forget about this or any other historical truth being taught. They would rather make up lies about rapid racism existing in every corner of society. This is a revolution to them, a revolution of socialist ideas that will lead to the utter destruction of America. Stand and stay strong patriots, Bidens dark winter has only begin!
@@samson9535 lots of liberals brainwashed then thought freedom is endowed by democracy and the rights given by the Government.
They have forgotten freedom is endowed by Constitutional Republic and needs blood to keep. The rights endowed by God but Government . B Tyranny is coming today as the Founding Fathers forecasted because People forgotten what Patriotism is.
They called Patriots traitors but called Mobs heroes.

Thank you to the Patriots who fought for our freedom!
That we don’t have anymore
We call on the Patriots who still may be, or once were, to return and come to his nation's aid in these desperate times. President - I mean, Overlord Xiden has met with all of the anti-gun groups this week in FEB 2021 before Valentines Day to discuss their plans for further infringement of the people's 2nd Amendment rights: no doubt with the ultimate goal of all-out confiscation of firearms. After the FED has disarmed the populace, the far-left radical GOV & supporters will move to eliminate those who oppose their ideas, like those Dictatorships of the world always do. The citizens can not allow any further loss of rights & liberties promised us by our great Constitution that many have died for, sometimes gladly. Should the US citizens passively comply with and obey these new unConstitutional gun laws and/ or Exec Orders, they would no longer possess the tools to fight tyranny and find themselves in living similar to those in North Korea, Venezuela and other totalitarian States who keep their boot on the throat of commoners

When we went to The Revolutionary War Museum in Philadelphia I was over come with emotion to see Washington’s tent. They have a brilliant show before revealing the tent. It was so powerful by the time they lifted the light revealing the tent I was in tears. Imagining his struggle and turmoils in that very spot. I wanted to whisper back in time how grateful I am and please don’t give up, your sons and daughters are so proud of you. We love you more than you can imagine!
wow, how surreal. i had no idea such an exhibit existed. I , too, would be overcome with emotion. I would surely stair for hours. Ive made a mental note, I SHALL see this , come hell or high water!!
Few of us appreciate what they gave us. What they gave the WORLD. And Washington was as humble as they come, while in reality, he stands with Napoleon and Alexander as one of the most successful and influential generals ever.
But unlike them, unlike Caesar, Washington and his compatriots fought not for themselves. They really didn't stand to benefit much. Life would've been much easier for those rich men to capitulate to the crown. Instead they risked all so that America might become The Shining Light on A Hill a beacon to all the world that we need not be ruled by tyrants. The world steadily grew better for two centuries after until we peaked about 20 yrs ago. Right as I came of age. My Freshman yr of college thr towers fell, and so ended Pax Americana. And - a few blips of hope aside - the world has steadily declined since. We will soon see a bad time
His accomplishment on that christmas eve is something I will always remember ans appreciate
His actual tent?
How beautifully written
@@tommyl3207. Yes, it was found packed away and largely intact. After a refurbishment it is now on display. It’s pretty big too. I saw a photo - it is a light tan color.
I always considered how lucky I am to be born in Philadelphia. I have easy access to all this great history so close to me. My Uncle was a WW2 vet who would take me and my brothers to Valley Forge every weekend when we were kids. And his famous quote to us was "Never forget the sacrifice the men who served here have given to you" Uncle Mason was a good man and an even better patriot. He loved his family. And loved this country till his last breath. It's so sad that people today don't get what these men sacrificed for their freedom. And the history they are taught today has been altered from the truth. This is truly a sad time in our great country.
Yes, in recent years I have gotten into revolutionary war history. I grew up in Philadelphia and now live in West Chester next to Brandywine. There are so many amazing sites and are lucky to live in such a historically rich area.
Your Uncle taught you well as my dad taught us the same thing. My dad is an immigrant, born and raised in Scotland, and has always said "I am American first!" He loves this country. I'm born and raised on Long Island, NY! Thank you!
Rd. R. I live forty five minutes from Trenton. I've visited Washington's Crossing many times. How these men did this, in bitter cold and dark uncertainty is awe inspiring.
Ron Froehlich- Mostly just the coastal major metropolitan areas! blame the mostly white Republicrat oligarchs in their race to the bottom in labor costs to inflate profit yields & executive compensation!
I too take great pride in being from Philadelphia but have you seen the current state of Independence Hall? It’s a mess. Wall paper is hanging off the walls, it’s like nobody is taking care of it. I believe Philadelphia Magazine did a story on it as well. I’m still proud to live here but they need to take care of the building and property ASAP.
I'm not a history expert, but it breaks my heart to watch this, grasping all that Washington and his men went through [in this wicked north-east cold] for our country, and watching the government give it all away today.
It makes me angry that we let them
@@Hy-Brasil we have to take it back
We must be like angry swarms of hornets. Harassing them at every turn. If we give up, we seal our fate.

Truly some of the greatest men to ever live. To suffer and sacrifice so much for such a long shot hope. Thank God for these great men
We Need these People back. These are the times that try men's souls.
Born on the 4th, Ive known, since I was a child, of Washington's Patriots' courage amidst unbelievable odds. Their example of faith and courage must remain in your minds in these coming 4 years.
It’s 2021, and those freedoms these brave patriots fought for are being threatened like never before.
We need patriots today with the same grit, fortitude, and conviction as they did during the American Revolution.
I agree , the Democratic Party has turned into an anti-American organization and hates the constitution and are trying and doing well to destroy it, either we will stop them with what ever it takes or America will be gone
The freedoms they fought for have long been attacked, and are now practically dead. It’s sad that most haven’t realized they are the frog in the Pan.
We have them, I am of the belief there is a "war" happening, not like this revolutionary war, it is a digital system that is being used for this one- We have the Best Leader known to man leading the way, His name is Donald J Trump!
God Bless America and the beacon of Freedom for which it shines🇺🇸❤️....love from Canada 🇨🇦
Washington crossing the Delaware is one of the greatest moments in American history. I always feel inspired by the story. As a child I remember a Christmas gift, a view-master stereo with a slide set of various events in American history. One in particular was my favorite and I still vividly recall it. The scenes were realistic color illustrations, and in stereo they had an effect of appearing life-like. It showed the battle of Trenton, scene by scene. I was fascinated by it, I still am today. "Set none but Americans on watch tonight".
The watchword; "Victory or Death".
Love documentaries like this: short, concise, straight to the point, and with animated maps to help you understand the big picture, please keep making more!
This is an excellent video. I wish more historic sites would produce videos like this. Thank you for uploading it.
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed".
Only problem I have is if that militia was more likely to turn their guns on their fellow countrymen than the actual enemy, which seems to be the case nowadays. :/
@@Wh40kFinatic that makes absolutely no sense
@nathanieldayspring00 What does that have to do with what I said? Yes they should. My comment says nothing to the contrary.

My fifth great grandfather Carl Werdy was a German soldier from Brunswick Germany he was captured and imprisoned at Winchester Va. after the war he was given the option to return to Germany his option was to remain in the USA, over time he migrated south finally to buncombe co. Nc (Asheville) where he owned 900 acres on Cane Creek rd. A beautiful valley, his name in English is Frady and may I say thank you Gen. George Washington for not shooting my grand father
This is one of the best produced and shot documentaries I have ever seen. This should be shown in every school in the U.S. Would love to see you guys do more docs like this. Keep up the GREAT work! 🗽🇺🇸
Thank you Terrance Connor, for fighting for my freedom with Washington. Thank you for being brave and enduring such horrible circumstances for my freedom. In heaven we will meet. One of your great great great granddaughters. Deborah
I am an immigrant, know citizen of the US and I love this country and I appreciate what Mr. Connor did for this country! God bless the USA!
Regardless of the fact that the British Army and the Hessian mercenaries were professionally trained. And the Americans were not very equiped for force on force battles. The Americans were very skilled at long range precision shots.
One skilled marksman accurately placing single precise shots on the enemy is a combat multiplier.
Voltaire stated, "it is not the Regiments that win the battle. It's the side that shoots better that wins the battle." I am positive that much of the troubles that the Americans had during the American Revolution. Brought about the Second Amendment of the US Constitution. Americans remember this and keep a rifle in your possession. And learn to use it.
We do.Thank you
@Sue Taft trying to figure out which is worse ;the Americans getting help with money by the French ,or the British losing with help from the Hessians ,native American and loyalist who outnumbered Washington??
@Sue Taft the British lost rhevwar ..get over it
@Sue Taft the Americans fought that war for the most part by themselves and turned the war around ,the French saw that and decided the time was right to come in .yes they defeated the royal navy and helped us win the last major battle of the war ,but what you can't admit as a Brit is:you had 8 years to defeat us when we were at our lowest point with the help of Hessians ,natives and loyalist and just couldn't get the job done...no excuses..you lost to the Americans
@Sue Taft the French came into the war after your defeat at the battle of Ticonderoga and battle of the cowpens.. the French were convinced them the Americans could actually fight and they knew that we had a chance if we had a navy..the French only land battle fought was at Yorktown ...you lost her over it..you still had Hessians,natives and loyalist to help you that you still refuse to mention
At this time of the year I always honor our great Founding Father and the brave Patriots that fought died and froze so i can enjoy Freedom and live in the Great USA! Thanks you for this tremendous production.
But His Fight Go's On,,, us,, Trump,,, The Evil Empire,,, is More Evil Than Ever....
From Rotherham England. There is an aspect of this conflict that has been long overlooked. Just as some Americans were Tories and took the British side, There were Patriot Brits who took the side of the colonists, some becoming senior officers serving under Washington. The Patriot movement started in the British Parliament in 1725 as a branch of the Whig Party. These radicals pushed to extend the franchise, end political corruption, abolish the slave trade and regain the ancient rights of Englishmen they believed lost. They were opposed by the Tory Party. This conflict between Patriot and Tory spread to the colonies. America being more Whig than Tory was seen as low hanging fruit. Rotherham Yorkshire was at the epicentre for much of this activity. Rotherham’s Earl of Effingham built a monument to the Boston Tea Party that still dominates our town from a hilltop to this day. By 1781, with the Tory Party falling apart, Rotherham’s Marquess of Rockingham was invited to become Prime Minister he agreed on the condition that he be allowed to set America free! The moment he came to power he stopped the fighting against the colonists, but continued the fight against France, Spain and Holland. In 1783 during the peace talks Britain offered better terms to the Americans than the French were demanding, this had the result of splitting the Americans away from France and a friendly and profitable trade was immediately started between Britain and the new USA. Our English Patriots built a massive Victory Arch to celebrate American Liberty at Parlington Hall Yorkshire (please google it). I’ve spent lockdown writing a little book on all this that has just been published by our local Civic Society.
The federalists lost power after Adams and his restrictive free speech laws that allowed for him to jail political opposition and unfavorable press. They then completely dead after 1812 when New England federalists spoke to the English to secede and rejoin the empire. When it came to the economy the federalists were right with things like a centralized bank, paper currency and increased industrialization. I also like that many were anti-slavery. On foreign affairs the democratic-republicans were right in their support of France during the revolution. Adams’ disastrous foreign policy almost got us in a war that we couldn’t afford to go to. He also made immigration more restrictive by banning immigration from France and deporting French people in America. Which technically gave him cause to deport Paul Revere.
No matter how many times I hear this story, I feel like it's the first time I have heard it. So proud of Washington and his Patriots.
This is incredibly well done
Thank you we are quite proud of it. It also won a gold and two bronze Telly awards www.mountvernon.org/about/news/article/mount-vernons-new-film-wins-gold-telly-award/

My third graders thank you! They loved it.
Thank you for teaching History .
God Bless these men and the Constitutional Republic of the United States of America.
It is so important to learn from history, real history.
Love watching all these threads. At least 100 of my family members fought in this war. One of my ancestors wife’s made a company flag for George Washington. The flag is under glass at valley forge. I am a proud member of the DAR and proud of all my families that fought for our freedom.
This show means more since the events in Washington . Stand for the Republic.
This is the stuff that gives me goosebumps and makes me feel proud I live everyday to keep wat our fellow Americans fought for in this powerful time in our country history I thank them all and hope they know how great and respected they became to be 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I live and have grown up directly across the Delaware from Burlington, NJ. Sad what has become of this area. The sense of liberty here is dead.
A lasting reality until November 4th 2020.
Indeed! History may have to repeat itself, one way or another. Hopefully we swing back to freedom rather than the direction we're currently going
Thank you in the production of this video.
In my case sometimes i forget how lucky i am to be born and living in the greatest country in the world and how our forefathers bled to give it to us. God Bless all of us and God Bless the U.S.🇺🇸
What production value, this video has. Bravo! I truly felt as though I was there.
ALTHOUGH I'M CANADIAN I MUST HAVE WATCHED "THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION 30 TIMES AND LOVE IT EACH TIME. THOUGH IT TOOK SOME TIME FOR THOSE 13 COLONIES TO COME AS ONE AGAINST THE BRITS. THEY EVENTUALLY WON AND STARTED SOMETHING NO COUNTRY ON EARTH HAS EVER ACCOMPLISHED. IF ONLY THE AMERICA TODAY WAS AS UNITED AS THEN!!
i really wish i able to visit New York some day...if can stay there..i always wanted to visit America my whole life...
Visiting is fine but staying there is growing increasingly more ... difficult and disheartening.
Whoever did this is a creative mastermind
One grandfather was revolutionary War in Virginia, the other donated 1000 lbs of beef to feed George Washington army, George Washington use to have to sometimes be harsh with his troops when they felt defeated but George never gave up.
A truly impressive depiction of these dangerous battles and the courage of the men who fought for our independence.
Never forget who we are and what we are made of! Celebrate their sacrifice and continue to defend their Glorious Gift to us. Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

George Washington is my hero. Now look at us. Sad day it was January 6, 2021. I don't and I refuse to believe that Patriotism is dead. A look at a couple 100,000 patriots that showed in DC proved it.
When you're doing so well in the campaign even *Frederick the Great* gives you a shoutout. It must have been amazing.
General Bonaparte, a French general who won a string of victories from 1792 to 1804 claimed Washington to be "brilliant" and mourned when Washington died in 1802.
Yes Washington lost battles. But was on the winning side of all the wars he's was in.
@apinl8844 - Washington died in 1799.

My 6th grandfather died fighting with Washington in the White Plains battle on October, 23, 1776
Word
Nicely done. I did not know that Princeton was right on the heels of Trenton. Usually Washington's Crossing is portrayed as what seems to be an isolated incident.
I recommend David Hackett Fischer's Washington's Crossing as an excellent tale, beginning with the disastrous loss of New York. Then through both battles at Trenton and one at Princeton. Followed by a winter with the Continentals and locals harrying British attempts to get food and forage.
Yes, the Brits could conquer. But they could not even hold New Jersey.
My 5th great grand father fought under Major Christopher Truby during the revolution. Was a ranger in PA. Fought against Native Americans and British coming out of Detroit that were harassing the frontier. To this day we still serve. I was navy then went army. My nephew is currently a paratrooper.
Thank you for your service! Praying our nation gets back to it's constitutional roots and respect for liberty, freedom, independence, and justice under God.

That painting is huge, like bigger than life size
I don’t know why I didn’t find this sooner, it’s hard to find such detailed descriptions of the revolutionary battles. Often times the revolution is overshadowed by the civil war when one is trying to learn some American history. The smaller battles are often the most charming.
I wasted too much time this morning looking for something like this. My only disappointment is that it's too short. No matter, I'm subscribing, in the hope that it will lead to other treasures.
Thank you so much for covering these long- lost, and unfortunately, forgotten tales. These are crucia and beneficial help maintainl our Democratic-Republic nation.
(I was the hero in this story. 😉)
This is a extremely important time in American history… extremely bloody time as well . My husband and I have this debate all the time, which is the bloodiest battle fought on American soil. I always win the debate with the Revolutionary War, because of all the blood shed between the French and the American Indian War that led to the American Revolution, ( the British , the German/ Hessians, the Colonists, and the Loyalists. )
This is a time in history that I would like to see more documentaries on . Since we can’t go back in time to see it . I’ve always been fascinated with the Revolutionary time .

This is excellent. I've read bios of GW by Ron Chernow and Joseph Ellis as well as the historical novels of Jeffrey Shaara. Washington's bravery, leadership, and statesmanship should be noted more by historians and educators.
It has been decades since I read about the Beautiful Lady that kept the Heshion General from leaving to attack Washington. She is the biggest hero of the Revolution. Washingtons plan would not have worked if not for her. I wish I could remember her name and the General she swept off his feet. He used her home for his Headquarters and he was so infatuated he couldn't leave her. She saved the Revolution. Washington and the Revolutionaries prayed for Victory. A person of Faith can see God's Handiwork in the miracle of our country. Washington understood that Freedom isn't free and there can be no Victory without Sacrifice. That is why our country is being destroyed today. Apathetic and to comfortable citizenship. If we don't have the courage to take our country back it will be over if it isn't already.
The men that manned the boats, and captured the hessians at Trenton were men of col glovers 14th infantry regiment. The men of the first navy and the marine corps were 14th infantry troopers. The 14th infantry has served with distinction-from then up until today.
Amazing production quality

What a great video, are there anymore from wide awake films?
We have two other films, Yorktown: Now or Never and A More Perfect Union. You can find them on our UA-cam channel.
@@mountvernon Modern historians state that one third of Washington's Continental Army was Irish. Cornwallis who was defeated at Yorktown in 1781 had his military reputation saved by his crushing of the 1798 rebellion in Ireland. Some Irish rebels were veterans of Washington army. The most famous Hessisn is probably the Headless horseman in the Sleepy Hollow story. Jeff Daniel's was great as Washington in the movie "The Crossing".
@@johnroche7541 Yes Jeff Daniels was and I watched it last night, It held up well. I also watched Pilifov's 28 it's on Amazon Prime, it's about the Siberians before Moscow, in November of 1941.
Some time back, while getting my degree in an adult learning program, I took a class on the history of the American Presidents. I had always admired Washington as one of the Founding Fathers of this nation, but his time as President was impressive as well. God Bless America and thank you General Washington for all you did.
When a leader like George Washington impresses a leader like Frederick the Great, you've certainly accomplished something.
