This is Conrad Heyer in his middle age. When he was a young man, he and 2400 other Americans crossed the Delaware with George Washington, defeating the Hessians the next morning. Honor and remember the 2400 Americans who crossed this night, 248 years ago, three of whom died in the action. 

DonSurber tells the story better than I could. Celebrate this most American of Christmas’, and Merry Christmas to all! https://open.substack.com/pub/donsurber/p/the-most-american-christmas-ever?r=2ghsz1&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
