During the winter in Valley Forge, food and supplies were scarce. A majority of the soldiers had a lack of, or improper, clothing for the winter weather. When spring arrived, bringing warmer weather, disease struck the army. Influenza, typhus, typhoid, and dysentery wiped out two-thirds of the soldiers.
