Bump from a fellow who visited Wash. Xing (PA side only) in the fall of 1994.
They are often full of subtle inaccuracies.
That is an understatement. As a Civil War re-enactor for 20 years attest to the bushels of “subtle inaccuracies” at re-enactments
We live twenty miles west of there. Wanted to go for years. Yesterday we and our daughters finally got there and it was great. Weather was perfect and event well done. Strong current forced boats to tack upstream and then across. Great day.
“The Crossing” is a fairly good account of that event.
Did George get arrested, fined $10,000 dollars and get 3 years in jail for joiseyz law against possession of a slingshot?
“...George Washington has been subpoenaed to appear in Adam Schiff’s ...:
Washington would have had Schiff SHOT and then hanged by the neck from a tree for all to see.
But hey... it’s Christmas, after all... Maybe he’d just have run him through with a saber.
Make him into a Schiff-ka-bob.
THAT was OUT-FRIGGING-STANDING, Dirtboy... LOL!!!!!!
Several posters here on FR have pointed out regularly how President Trump certainly has large brass ones, and, obviously, George Washington and his guys there did too.
Growing up in Philly, our family summer picnics were always up in the beautiful Washington Crossing Park (many years ago), and it is a great place to visit. (For any who might be interested, here are a few more links you might want to check out related to that park, and another one with more photos of the crossing reenactment.)

I have often noted that the Calhoun Street Bridge that links Trenton and Morrisville
is a great point of reference for liberty vs tyranny and gun control.
In short, why is there so much crime in Trenton where guns are basically prohibited...while, right across that Bridge, is a generally more affluent town with riches for the taking... 
...but where you can obtain a carry permit AND firearm legally without a long wait? Hmmmm...now...how could this be...
Jeff Daniels played a very believable Washington (hard to believe, though).
Also, movie showed a side of Hamilton very few know about anymore.
