This program will allow participants to have the unique opportunity to use the actual locations involved in the planning and execution of the Battles of Trenton and Princeton, December 26, 1776 and January 3, 1777 as a “living classroom” to add depth and context to the study of the leaders, commanders, strategic considerations and leadership principles.
