    Answer: C) many troops died, but those who survived were well trained

    Explanation:

    Of the 11,000 soldiers stationed at Valley Forge, hundreds died from disease. As the winter stretched on, Prussian military adviser Frederick von Steuben kept the soldiers busy with drills and training in modern military strategy. When Washington's army marched out of Valley Forge on June 19, 1778, the men were better disciplined and stronger in spirit than when they had entered.
